Our story

Connecting people through language, one learning experience at a time.

Our Story

Since 1972

We started our language school in Singapore with a powerful vision: helping learners create better relationships, connections, and opportunities.

We’ve come a long way since then, yet our focus has remained clear. Today, we are one of the most established language schools in the region, and continue to empower people with lifelong skills and life-changing learning experiences.
