International Summer Programs

Summer Intensive English Institute

Session II: August 4–22, 2025

International students excel in our intensive summer English classes designed to quickly increase students’ English skills. Classes meet from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, Monday through Friday. 

Students begin with comprehensive placement tests. Test results are then used to place each student in the appropriate levels for phonics, reading, writing, vocabulary, grammar, speech, and TOEFL preparation. Students work in small groups with personal attention from the Fairfax Christian School’s teachers. Students may also attend weekly educational field trips to popular Washington, D.C., popular sites.

Students should arrive on a Sunday before classes begin and plan to leave on a Saturday after their classes end.

Students who attend all three weeks and complete their work will receive a semester of high school English credit from the Fairfax Christian School.
