Since 2003 we have been the local leaders in language teaching processes in French and English. Our process gives the chance to our tutors (Colombian teachers) to teach these languages with the help of international assistants to recognize their weaknesses and strengths and practice what we have been involving in our classes in a real situation.
We have established two different periods in the year for our academic purposes. They are based on the national academic calendar, January-June and July-December. Our classes have different shifts, in the morning, afternoon, night and saturday. Most of our students are teenagers and kids from 6 years old.
The levels we have students at are focused on the European Common Framework in which we would love to have your assistance to achieve our goals.
