We craft beautiful learning experiences
We are a language institute based in Houston, Texas that specializes in providing on-site English (English as a Second Language or ESL) and Spanish classes in many locations around the USA such as Texas, Oregon, New Jersey, Washington and Tennessee to name a few. Our language learning service offers business English and Spanish classes, courses, and programs for corporate clients. One of our unique specializations we have developed over the last ten years is our proprietary on-site workplace (vocational) English language program directed at blue collar laborers such as machine and equipment operators, technicians, manual labor personnel, farm laborers, hotel staff, maintenance workers and other vocational type workers. In addition, we continue to offer our foundational group and individual corporate English classes for expats working in the US in white collar positions such as sales, finance, management and engineering. For approaching twenty years, we have delivered English and Spanish classes and programs on-site to a broad range of corporate clientele such as Fortune 100 tech companies, aerospace industry suppliers and some of the largest international oil and gas corporations.
Frequently Asked Questions
We are providing live in-person classes when circumstances safely permit. In locations in the US where state/local guidelines or regulations do not permit, we have suspended live on-site classes. When appropriate, we also offer the alternative of high quality virtual class experiences through online digital platforms.
On a case by case basis, we have and can offer programs in other languages. Please contact us and let us know about your situation and we will consider whether or not we can meet your needs to the high standards we have for delivering our services to our clients. The biggest concern we have is our ability to identify and work with highly qualified language teaching professionals for a targeted language. Finding a native speaker of a foreign language (other than Spanish) who also has valid experience teaching their language can present a considerable challenge in certain markets.
Although we have organized ESL programs for children with private schools since our founding, we have decided to discontinue promoting ESL programs for children as a regular part of our services. We will continue to work with children on a case-by-case basis. If you are in the Houston area, we do have a partnership with a local private school there that accepts international students and offers I-20s. If interested, please contact us for more information.

The Vital Role of Inefficiency in Learning
How do we define “learning?” Is learning the harvest of a creative endeavor that requires a genuine investment of effort and sacrifice on our part or merely a transactional act focused on how rapidly we can access and ingest information and data? We live in
Learning’s Landscape of Beauty
I love it when an experience puts me into what the great Irish writer, James Joyce, would call a state of “esthetic arrest”—when an experience stops time. I am a teacher by profession but I paradoxically most often find myself in the role of the inquirer,
