Teaching English includes General English, Business English, Exam Preparation, Corporate Training and tailor-made courses. We teach adults, schoolchildren and pre-school kids.
We also offer a number of creative programs like “English week-ends” outside the city to discover the life and culture of different English-speaking countries
- a kind of immersion into the language. On Sundays we have an English Club designed and conducted by our teachers and native-speaking English instructors. Schoolchildren enjoy their holidays in our children language camps in the most picturesque areas of the Volgograd region during school holidays.
Our study rooms are designed and equipped to the highest standard. We have an extensive library of up-to-date published ESL materials; our central offices contain photocopiers, printers and computer terminals with free Internet access. However, our greatest resource is our supportive, creative and dedicated teaching staff. We currently employ more than 70 teachers including 15 native speakers from the UK, the USA, Spain, France, and Italy.
