Turning innovative education into career success

The ESL Institute Group was founded in 1987 to help address the lack of options for learning English in Mexicali, Mexico. From its initial five students, it has grown into an institution with more than 5,000 students across four campuses, also now providing language support for workers, including nurses and drivers.

¡°We have worked for more than 30 years with ɫèAV's series ... At some point we tried to change books, with another publishing house, but we saw that the students did not come out with the same level as with ɫèAV's Side by Side, so we returned to that material and we have been with only ɫèAV books for twelve years."
Clarissa G¨¢lvez, General Director of the ESL Institute Group
