Professional Development

Learning is at the heart of our organization and on-going professional development is part of our company culture. Seminars and classroom observations provide forums where teachers can meet likeminded colleagues and develop their teaching techniques. With a promote-from-within policy, our Managers are dedicated to mentoring teachers' potential and encouraging progression into management positions.

How many careers today involve a multicultural environment and communication, time management, organization, training, and presentation skills? Teaching English abroad with Wall Street English incorporates and develops all of these transferable skills.

"I started as a teacher in Milan and received excellent training and follow up from my Managers. I was then promoted to the position of Service Manager in Berlin and then Munich. As a Service Manager in Munich in Germany's largest Wall Street Institute Center, I developed skills in recruitment, budget control, logistics, training, staff development and of course teaching. To combine living abroad and career development was a dream come true for me," Gary Peters, Service Manager, Germany.
