Hi and welcome to the English Learning Centre website!

So, you've decided you want to study the English language…

Whether it's to improve your existing English language skills or whether you're keen to start a beginner's course, what an exciting prospect this is going to be! Hopefully, a tour around the ELC website will help you to find out everything you need so you can make the right choice.

As you will see, our ethos is unique: we offer our students the opportunity to 'live' English in a natural, fun and meaningful context, where the language comes alive. Our experienced and highly motivated staff ensure that this is the driving force behind our approach to learning. And fortunately, we can celebrate our academic achievement by the ongoing success of our students, reflected in their examination pass rate.

You join us at a special time - 2005 is the year the English Learning Centre has been given formal approval by the University of Cambridge as a CU Examinations Centre - only the second of its kind in Cyprus! A great addition to our existing status as a Teacher Training Centre, offering University of Cambridge validated CELTYL and CELTA courses.

And how lucky we are to have this beautiful island, the Jewel of the Mediterranean, as our backdrop- since Cyprus' entry into the EU in 2004, the demand for English tuition abroad is steadily growing. Visit our Overseas section to see the courses on offer... and the packages we can design for your combined English language and cultural holiday study programme.

We’ve tried to give you as much information as you will need to make an informed choice, but if there’s a burning question we’ve omitted, please feel free to email us on our contacts page. We’d love to hear from you…

Enjoy browsing the ELC website!
