Intrax Activities Program

Joining in activities will help you feel more comfortable right from the start of your program, and it is fun! Intrax leads many cultural, social and professional activities so you will have a personal tour guide—and friends you already know—to help you explore. See the attractions in your American city, meet the residents, and practice your English in different settings.

Meet Americans

At Intrax, we provide many opportunities for you to meet Americans, both inside the classroom and on fieldtrips and at activities. You can make American friends, hear different accents and practice your English skills in real-life situations. Plus, by meeting with locals every week, you will increase your confidence, gain skills more quickly and learn the most current, real English.

Accommodations

Intrax offers three types of housing options. Intrax’s homestay option is a unique way to experience American traditions and cultures by living with a carefully screened and interviewed family ready to welcome international students to your city.  Intrax’s residence club option offers an independent living situation with a fun, international atmosphere that includes dormitory-style housing and meal options or shared kitchens. There are also many types of housing options that you can book yourself through the Independent Housing option.

Great Teachers

At Intrax, our teachers are trained and experienced professionals. They have been teaching for an average of 5-10 years, so they have the skills and the knowledge to answer all of your questions and provide you with the highest quality experience. They also care about their students’ success—and it shows. Many of our students stay in touch with their teachers throughout their lives. And if you want private tutoring in any English or professional subject, our teachers are available to help.

Accreditation

Intrax’s U.S. centers have been accredited by ACCET, the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training, since 1996.  Accreditation is voluntary and extensive, meaning Intrax is regularly evaluated in over 30 industry standards, including quality of instructors, curriculum, student services and school management.  In maintaining accreditation, Intrax is focused on high educational quality and continuous assessment and improvement of our programs and services.  In 2008, Intrax received a 5-year grant of reaccreditation: the longest grant term possible.

Testimonials

Quotation mark.

I’ve always wanted to live in another country, but I always thought that was not possible for me. When I start following Study in USA, I saw that it’s not that hard. All the emails that most people think it’s not important, it was very important to me because it showed me my options and how to do it, now I planned everything and I’m very happy with that.
