It all begins with you, and like any good relationship, we’ll begin by getting to know you. What sort of English course are you looking for? Why do you want to improve your English? What skills do you need to master? Do you need a broader vocabulary, better pronunciation, or more confidence when speaking? Where do you work? What’s your job?

So… if you’re looking for just another boring English course, a one-book, one-method, one-size-fits-all course, we are not the right school for you. If you want to hide in the back of a big classroom and take one more confusing grammar lesson, move on. That’s not how we roll. However, if you are looking for a modern, smart, interactive, fully personalized course that will put YOU at the center, provide results and yes (!) – be enjoyable, then you have come to the right place.

The English Center is a woman-owned, teacher-managed, client-centered company with a passion for your success. We believe that there’s nothing more important for your career than good communication, and it’s our job to help you be your confident best when using the world’s favorite shared language.
