English sticks when you speak it.

You are the focus. The teacher is a partner who draws your English out.

You may have studied English for years and still find that the words will not come when it is time to speak.

What SEI protects is the time students spend speaking English.

Mistakes and pauses are part of the lesson. An experienced teacher follows each student's pace, interests, and goals, and keeps the room comfortable enough to speak.

The English you have stored away becomes language you can use in conversation.

Not only learning English, but speaking it in your own words.

先に結論からお伝えします。

Speak with a teacher

A conversation
continues because someone is there.

Lessons at SEI are taught by an American teacher from New York.

He has taught for about 30 years in six cities across three countries, including about five years in Japan.

The student remains the center of the lesson. Through conversation, the teacher draws out each person's ability and helps them speak English that is more natural and more accurate.
