LPI preparation and Essay Writing

Renowned Courses of Franklin English Language College

LPI has been considered to be one of the criteria for most BC universities. Both local students and international students feel frustrated about the test because LPI is mainly testing students’ writing ability, as well as sentence structure, language application and reading comprehension ability. Therefore, having advanced grammar skills and enough vocabulary is crucial for the test.

Being proficient in English grammar is really helpful to improve the ability to write complex sentences. It is also hard to make write attractively and appealingly without essential vocabulary. The LPI program of Franklin provides an appropriate approach to improve skills effectively: “Golden Rules + Word Formation + 100-Killer-Words + LPI writing”. This approach is the best way to solve LPI difficulties, and students would not worry about LPI anymore.

The Golden Rule is one of the best parts that Frank Miao shares with the class his expertise and the findings of his 18-year-long research in the area. It covers most of English grammar knowledge. By learning word formation, students would be able to dramatically expand their vocabulary, which is not only helpful in writing skills but also reading skills. What are more important are the 100 killer-words because they make your writing more appealing and attractive by applying all those words in the essay.

PLI Preparation at FELC

The Language Proficiency Index (LPI) is a standardised test that assesses a student's proficiency in the English language; it is used by many colleges and universities in British Columbia.

A brochure from UBC introducing aspects of the LPI is available here.

The most important part of the LPI is the 300 to 500 word essay. At FELC, you will learn about the types of essay topics you will face and how to respond to them. Your essays will be revised with you one-on-one, and you will come to understand what your strengths and weaknesses in academic writing are. Best of all, you will never again approach an essay topic feeling that you have nothing to say!

You will also have access to the various classes and resources at FELC to improve your basic language skills.
