What is the Intensive English Language Program (IELP)?

The Intensive English Language Program at Temple University was created over 30 years ago to offer English as a Second Language courses to non- English speakers. From elementary to advanced, the classes extend from everyday English to the language necessary for university studies. The purpose of the program is to meet each participant's English language needs and introduce her/him to American culture in classes such as: English Through Volunteering, American Icons, The Movies of Steven Spielberg, Photography and Business English.
