Thematic Activities Global citizenship, Academically focused

The online summer program at the UBC English Language Institute provides the same curriculum as our on-campus program in a format that is convenient for those who choose to study virtually. Explore participants learn and practise language skills (vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, etc.) in an inclusive environment and with a focus on collaborative learning and student engagement.

Students from different parts of Canada will come together in online classes to improve their English-language skills in the context of current themes on global citizenship. The full-time Explore program at UBC consists of predominantly synchronous (instructor-led) lessons supported by some asynchronous (own-time) activities.

What makes our program special and unique?

  • Classes are taught by highly qualified and experienced English-language instructors.
  • Asynchronous lessons are engaging and flexible and allow students to work at their own pace.
