ESL Program Introduction
Milo’s English Language Learning Center (ELLC) provides a unique academic and cultural opportunity for success in the real world. The English for Academic Achievement program focuses on enhancing English skills and preparing individuals to move ahead in the global community. ELLC helps students improve English communication, exposes them to new culture, and allows them to make friends around the world.
MAA accepts international high school students who wish to obtain a high school diploma and students who have recently graduated from high school and would like to get a College Prep Certificate. Students who do not wish to pursue a high school diploma are welcome to enroll in the College Prep Certificate Program designed to help students achieve the TOEFL score necessary for university entrance.
