Qualification levels
Elvis Language School was founded in 1990. It is permanently listed by the Ministry of Education, which means that it fulfils all Ministry of Education criteria in terms of the quality of the teaching programme and qualifications of the teaching staff. We are also a partner school of the Brtisih Council.
Our school has grown exponentially since it opened. Counting post-secondary-school courses, intensive public English courses and students of in-company English courses, more than 2000 satisfied students at all language competence levels attend our school annually.
Teaching Standards
Student satisfaction is our overriding concern. We keep in close contact with our students and, using regular anonymous surveys on the courses, we check on student satisfaction and quality of teaching. Our internal research shows that 30-40% of our new students come on the recommendations of our former alumni.
Getting student visa is possible if you study in a course of 20 hours/week.
We use up-to-date textbooks and the teachers are flexible enought to adapt to the particular needs.
The strong point of the courses is the focus on systematic learning!
Teachers
Our teachers undergo strict selection procedures which assess the levels of their teaching qualifications. Consummate knowledge of the language is a matter of course. Key requirements are teaching experience and, above all, the ability to impart knowledge to others.
