Whether it is the faculty or the scientific level of the curriculum, the only one that can compete with Wall Street English is EF Education. EF, which has provided language training and education services for the Olympic Games five times, has been established for more than 50 years. Since 1995, he has cooperated with Apple Inc. to explore computer language learning projects; By 2010, the world's largest student competition, the "Hult Prize", which aims to solve the most difficult global problems, was established, and in the same year, the Language Learning Center was established with the School of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics of the University of Cambridge as an academic research partner. In 2011, the world's largest English proficiency report, EPI, was released for the first time. Since 2013, EF has been a leader in the training industry and a long-term foreign language training partner favored by Citibank, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Philips, ABInbev, Johnson Controls and other companies. EF's learning system levels correspond to the CEFR Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, and each level includes exercises in listening, reading, writing, and interactive units. Among them, A1 Introductory Level and A2 Beginner Level are designed for zero-based students who have little contact with English, or have a basic understanding of grammatical structure, and can understand some situational conversations, and are jointly taught by Chinese and foreign teachers. B1 Intermediate, B2 Upper-Intermediate, C1 Advanced and C2 Advanced are advanced learning courses, ranging from limited forms of expression in everyday life discussions, to understanding complex and lengthy literary works, fluency in various types of conversations, accurate expression and polishing, with a total of 10 levels to be studied, all taught by external teachers. EF's curriculum model is still a combination of online and interactive offline teaching, and the SMART 15 learning system is based on three major areas: Learn→ Try→ Apply. The first part of Learn, which is mainly completed online, is divided into 6 units for each level, each unit includes 3-5 hours of content, focusing on consolidating basic courses such as grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, and mostly using video videos covering real life and work scenes to create a question bank, and the learning experience is relatively easy to educate. In addition, the ASR speech recognition technology can correct pronunciation 24 hours a day, and all multimedia content can be watched repeatedly on the PC and APP side, which is convenient for students to learn during business trips, commuting and other fragmented time periods. It should be noted that the knowledge points on Smart Online are not synchronized with offline classes, and if you are not diligent in consolidating and reviewing, it is likely that you will be completely disconnected by the time of face-to-face teaching. Doing a lot of listening and reading exercises and repeating and memorizing knowledge points is the correct way to open Smart Online. At the end of Smart Online, students will receive a class voucher, which will unlock the second section, Try. The class ticket entitles you to T1 Face to Face (1-4 students), 1 Workshop (1-25 students), 1 Group Class (8-person online group conversation class) and 1 Private Class (1-to-1 online private conversation class) per day. Among them, the time and space restrictions of online group conversation classes are relatively low, and you can participate in the classes on each hour and half point after the network is launched, and each class is 45 minutes; The workshop is also a good opportunity to practice output, and there are 3 classes a day in the morning, noon and evening. Face-to-face classes and 1-on-1 group conversation classes require reservations, and since EF does not set up offline VIP courses, it is much easier than Wall Street English's class rush to complete the next two weeks of classes at one time; Online 1-to-1 only needs to be booked 1 day in advance, and each class is 20 minutes; This course is also the only module that EF can sell separately, 6,000 yuan can buy 20 40-minute online private classes, suitable for students who travel a lot and are not convenient to take offline classes. EF's Apply link is very rich, divided into two modules: LifeClub and CA. CA is a discussion in the business context, focusing on workplace socialization; LifeClub is held every day at EF Beijing's 10 learning centers or off-center venues, with an average of 4-7 activities per day, such as mini billiards, flower arrangement, talking about stress at work, handmade lipstick masters, wine tasting, and other fun activities in a real language environment, so that students have plenty of opportunities to practice speaking flexibly. EF course fees are not calculated by class hours and levels, but are measured in years, and if you study for 5-7 hours per week, you can learn about 4 levels. Compared with Wall Street English's fee-by-class fee, the annual learning cycle is more suitable for diligent and time-rich students, and it is a more cost-effective choice to do more questions and make more appointments, which can basically go to 1-2 more levels. However, the lack of synchronization between the content of Smart Online video classes and face-to-face classes, and the problems of mixed-level classes, are still a whirlpool of controversy that EF cannot avoid, and the setting of no VIP classes lacks a certain degree of privacy. At the same time, when the contract involves the "management fee" of withdrawal and refund, prohibiting consumers from transferring courses to third parties, and renewing the contract without refund, it is necessary to keep your eyes open and consider carefully when signing the contract.
