There are several programs to choose from during the summer English Language program at Tufts.
English Today Program
English Today is designed for individuals who desire a combination of classes and activities to make the most of their summer in Boston.
Tufts faculty draw upon students' unique contributions to their classes and their own creativity. Teachers are available outside of class for individual appointments. In this way, each student receives individual attention.
Evening tutoring sessions led by Tufts Summer English Language Program staff provide support for you in completing homework assignments and discovering new aspects of American culture.
The classes take place in the morning, which leaves your afternoons free. Almost every day there are optional afternoon excursions to many interesting places where you will experience new things and also use your English in real life situations.
There is also an optional afternoon session if you wish to participate in a more intensive session, offered at a small extra cost.
The English Today program is either a six-week or a four week program, depending on your choice. The 2010 dates are as follows:
Six-week program – July 4th through August 13th
Four-week program - July 18th through August 13th
The prices for this program include: tuition, your room at the university, health insurance, all meals, airport transfers and many activities.
Summer Institute for International Scholars
For over 20 years, the Tufts Summer Institute for International Scholars has trained students to write American-style research papers and communicate effectively in a graduate school setting. Through careful analysis of writing structure, thesis development, and a widened vocabulary base, students acquire the skills and confidence necessary to fully participate in a U.S. graduate degree program. Classes are taught in a seminar environment that closely resembles the U.S. graduate school experience. Evening tutoring sessions led by Tufts Summer English Language Program staff complement this intensive academic program.
This program is only available as a six week program and is meant to prepare students for graduate universities in America. Admission to this program is based upon international English test scores. Although this program is not for everyone, if your intention is to enter a graduate program at an American university, then this is a great program for you.
The program dates for the 2010 season are:
Six-week program – July 4th through August 13th
