When it comes to mastering English communication, consistency matters. But so does structure. That’s why the L.E.A.P. Program—short for Learn, Evolve, Adapt & Placed—is designed not just as a course, but as a guided journey toward confident communication.
Whether you're a student aiming to improve your speaking skills or a college-goer preparing for interviews and placements, the L.E.A.P. Program offers a 10-month roadmap tailored for progressive, skill-based development.
In this blog, we’ll break down how a student’s learning evolves month by month, the types of courses they can take, and how L.E.A.P. helps them reach C1-level fluency in less than a year.
How the Journey Is Structured
The L.E.A.P. Program follows the CEFR framework (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), ranging from A1 (Beginner) to C1 (Advanced). There are five levels in total:
A1: Basic English for everyday use
A2: Simple conversations and short texts
B1: Independent use of English for academics
B2: Clear, detailed communication across topics
C1: Professional fluency for work and global readiness
Each level consists of 3 core courses, meaning students complete approximately 2–3 courses per month. With consistent effort, students complete the full journey in 10 months.
Let’s walk through it:
Month 1: Getting Started with A1
Courses:
English for Daily Routines
Simple Sentences and Greetings
Basic Listening Skills
Students begin their journey with basic listening, speaking, and sentence structure. Lessons include vocabulary for daily activities, self-introductions, and essential verbs.
Podcast Format: Each lesson includes an audio clip to train listening comprehension.
Assessments: Quizzes and short exercises to build comfort with simple language.
Month 2: Progressing Through A2
Courses:
Asking Questions & Giving Directions
Listening for Specific Information
Reading Simple Notices and Ads
Here, learners move toward short conversations and reading comprehension. They practice instructions, location-based dialogues, and question patterns.
Real-world scenario exercises: ordering food, asking for help, reading flyers.
Month 3: Bridging to B1
Courses:
Describing Experiences and Events
Writing Short Paragraphs and Emails
Listening to Announcements and Dialogues
This is where independent English use begins. Students are encouraged to share opinions, write descriptive content, and understand fast-paced speech.
💬 Speaking tasks help build confidence.

Month 6: B2 – Real-World Application
Courses:
Workplace Communication
Report Writing & Formal Emails

This is the confidence zone of the L.E.A.P. journey.

📅 Month 10: Final Assessment + Placement Skills

At the end of Month 10, students earn a C1-Level Certificate and are fully equipped to tackle academic, personal, and professional challenges in English.

The beauty of the L.E.A.P. journey is that it's flexible:
