Unlock the power of formative assessment.

EF Class combines the best of learning in a traditional classroom setting with digital learning, with the goal of engaging every single student in each classroom.

Comprehensive

300+ hours of ready-to-use lessons featuring thousands of activities. We have specific courses which align to the Swedish national curriculum for English 5, 6, and 7, as well as international courses aligned to CEFR levels, all supported by additional grammar and pronunciation modules.

Relevant

Lessons are built around compelling topics with tasks anchored in the real world and student interests. There’s also a new lesson added every week, covering the latest news and events, or exploring novel ideas for the classroom. Try doing that with a book!

Flexible and Adaptive

Allows teachers to be responsive to students’ needs, tailoring your lesson in real-time to different learning needs and giving instant feedback.

Devoted to quality

EF Class’ content and features are continuously improved, based on data, classroom observation, and feedback from students and teachers.

Designed in classrooms.

Dedicated to understanding the needs of teachers and students.

Over the course of three years, we have worked with teachers, students, and principals to craft the way EF Class supports learning and teaching.

As all classrooms are unique, we’ve visited, observed, and learned from a wide variety of public and charter schools in large cities and small towns.

EF Class makes teaching and learning more effective by enabling everyone in the classroom to participate.

Why is EF Class free?

Put simply: EF Class is free for teachers and students because the more people that use it the better it becomes, for everyone.

At some point in the future (2019, at the earliest) we will be introducing paid-for features as part of a premium package for which we intend to charge around €15 per student. This will not impact the free version of EF Class.

“Everything I need! The tool is flexible and very user-friendly, and the content is current and up-to-date, which makes it very easy to incorporate other school subjects with English studies. I am also free to create lessons and exercises that my students work with in many different ways; during class, after class or as preparation for examinations, etc. All in all, EF class is an exciting new tool which makes it easy for me to create interesting lessons and tasks while working with English!”

“EF Class is a new and unique way of learning. It engages the students more because you don’t have to sit with a bunch of books and papers; everything’s collected online.“
