- Collaborate with Others students work with their classmates, allowing them to practice their English communication skills, learn from their peers, and get experience communicating with people from other cultures.

- Teacher Feedback: students receive frequent feedback from their instructors on their progress.
- Small Classes: the maximum class size in the English in Use Course is 8 students, so students get a lot of personal attention and feel comfortable in a small group
