ESL (English as a Second Language) PROGRAMS:

Here is a list of ESL programs that we can recommend to our visitors (and students)... We have included what we think are the best schools, universities, programs to study English as a second language (ESL/ESOL). We believe that the best way to learn a language is to be in a country where it is spoken, so we only listed programs in English-speaking countries. PLEASE NOTE: This is not an extensive/complete list - we know that there are many good English language programs out there :) If you know of any that should be on this list, contact us and we'll do a link exchange.

*btw, most of the write-ups come from the schools themselves - not us*
