The Schools
We are a truly global company, established in 1965 and now with over 400 centers around the world. We teach over 20,000 students in 65 schools throughout Indonesia and have established ourselves as the market leader for private language learning. We have positions available year round in the cosmopolitan capital city of Jakarta.

The Students
Students at our adult schools are typically 20 to 40 year old professionals, well educated and from a wide variety of backgrounds. They are motivated to learn English and recognize that it as a skill essential for their career development. Levels range from beginner right through to advanced and all students are clearly placement tested to ensure they are studying alongside students of the same abilities.


Teaching Methods
Teachers are encouraged to use their creativity to bring the lessons alive and make the most of a variety of activities such as role plays, group work and discussions. The class sizes are kept small, from 1 to 6 students in the ‘face to face’ classes which allows for noticeable progress to be made and also makes classroom management that much easier and up to 25 students in the ‘workshop’ classes. Classes are 50 minutes in lengths.

Course materials & technology
Popular with students and teachers alike, our course materials have been developed by a dedicated team of linguistic and educational experts. Each lesson is accompanied with pre-made PowerPoint presentations displayed through a projector in the classroom. Teachers have a wide range of supplementary materials including activity sheets, videos and conversation activities. Teachers are encouraged to use their creativity to adapt the materials and bring in their own materials where they see fit to meet the lesson aims.


Indonesia – The Country


Indonesia is a wonderful blend of people, cultures and ethnicities with a population of over 245 million, the fourth largest in the world. Located in South East Asia, Indonesia is a collection of 16,000 islands spread along equator with Australia to the south and Singapore and Vietnam to the north. Enjoy a pleasant climate ranging from 16 – 35 degrees throughout the year with two distinct seasons.


The capital city of Jakarta on the main island of Java is a hub of activity appealing to a diverse range of interests and lifestyles. Experience a mix of chic shopping malls and trendy bars alongside traditional food stalls and backstreet markets.


Outside of the capital Indonesia boasts some of the most break-taking natural beauty on the planet with endless possibilities for adventure and exploration, from the pristine beaches of Bali to the jungle treks in Bukit Lawang and much more.
