We’re thrilled to be working with The English Center because
they make it possible to train people of varying skill levels,
meeting student's individual needs and displaying extraordinary
cultural sensitivity. With so many years of experience and tons
of great curriculum for English classes and computer training,
The English Center is the first place I turn to for those
training needs.

We contacted the English Center with a unique communication challenge
that we had a hard time identifying internally. The English Center
came in and performed a comprehensive writing and verbal analysis
of our staff and identified where we would best benefit from their
training.
Lynne and Stephen assembled a custom curriculum to meet our specific
needs.
The classes consisted of 16 sessions that immersed our staff in the
proper learning environment—an interactive classroom in which they
could feel comfortable and freely ask questions.
The result was outstanding. We plan on having the English Center
teach more classes for Thoratec.
