ESL Academy | University of Colorado Denver

"My experience at the ESL Academy was amazing; I started with an intermediate level of English and I'm leaving with an advanced level and with the confidence of knowing that I'm able to pull together a presentation and a research paper in this language! I'm very grateful for all the teachers! They are amazing! I definitely recommend this program for international students."

"One of the best schools I've attended. Excellent location in downtown Denver with access to various restaurants, shops and transportation if you don't drive. Staff members are very friendly and helpful even with matters outside the school. Teachers are smart and kind, they will answer all your questions. There are also tutors who can help you with your homework. Students come from many different countries with different languages which creates a good opportunity to practice your english and learn about other cultures. One thing I don't like is that it's very HOT inside the classroom, and some classes are small with too many people which makes breathing a challenge! Other than that it's GREAT"

"Honestly, the ESL Academy is one of the best educational institutions I have ever studied in. The friendly special staff who work their are what makes the ESL Academy an awesome place to study in. Because of their kindness, students are always welcomed to ask for help and feel respected. However, some students block the corridors and make so much noise during the breaks, and this really bothers me. Another thing that I don't like is the listening and speaking course. Although it has helped me to better take notes, I still don't feel that this course helps me to speak better. Particularly, in daily life conversations. In other words, we are not going to debate with everyone we meet. How to easily communicate and begin a normal conversation with others is what this course should focus on more. Thank you the ESL Academy for all the happy moments you have added to my life!"

"I'm a student at the ESL Academy Level 5. Furthermore, I'm going to honestly evaluate the ESL Academy in concepts of location, teachers, and the building in general. First, the location is perfect because it's in the Downtown Denver close to everything and close to the light rail convenient to students who don't have cars. In addition, teachers are very helpful, best teachers for grammar are; Ms. Elliot, Ms. Stein, and Ms. Fisher. For reading and writing Ms. Idrees. Finally, the school environment in general is very comfortable and inspires students to learn, and so clean. In conclusion, I hope the best for the ESL Academy."

"ESL academy is unlike other language schools I have attended. This school is a good place to learn different cultures, behaviors, and language. I make many new friends during these 2 months. The courses at this ESL Academy are different because they use “content-based” in their teaching. This method enhances and motivates me to learn in the way that I like. My time at ESL Academy is worth it."
