ABOUT THE ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES (EAP) DEPARTMENT

Broward Vietnam aims to provide students an opportunity to study English in an American College system. This is more than just learning some new vocabulary words or practicing a few grammar points, but instead is a fully immersive English experience.

This is a four-tiered, intensive English Program that will challenge and prepare the students for the rigors of studying abroad in the United States, Canada, Australia, or the United Kingdom. All of the classes are intensive, and students are expected to function at a high level.
