Fantastic experience: Great and supportive staff, awesome teachers! I highly recommend this school!

Negative experience: One of the worst staff I have ever dealt with at a private school. When you point out their incompetence, they just tell you to find another school because they are offended that someone doesn’t find them to be amazing. Endless vague emails and no clarity about the onboarding process. Once you submit everything to them, they hit you with another vague email. I will not be spending any of my money here at your school if your staff isn’t going to be clear and concise or remotely supportive with the enrollment process. Best of luck to the owners of this school.

Fantastic experience: I'm very happy with this school, which not only gave me good teachers but also friends! The staff is always available and takes care to answer our questions. I definitely recommend this school to everyone ✨

The administration was equally impressive—always welcoming, friendly, and professional. Every interaction was met with a smile, which created such a positive and encouraging environment. The school not only focuses on academic growth but also fosters a warm and inclusive community.

Fantastic experience: Since my first day at Advanced English Academy in San Francisco, I’ve had an incredible experience. I’m grateful for the opportunity to meet such wonderful people, including great teachers like George, Justin, and Ryan, as well as the helpful staff, especially Vanessa. She was always there to assist me whenever I needed. Beyond the classroom, I’ve formed lasting friendships and had the chance to explore San Francisco like a local during our field trips. These experiences have made my time at the academy truly unforgettable.

Fantastic experience: I started at Advance English Academy in 2020, during the pandemic, so I had to take classes online at first. Even though it was virtual, the support from the school was amazing, and my teacher, Matt, made learning fun and engaging. When we finally moved to in-person classes, it was the best part of my experience. Being able to interact face-to-face with people from all over the world added so much to my learning journey. The classroom discussions were always lively, and I loved getting to hear so many different perspectives. With this school, I was able to make a smooth transition to college, and I’m especially grateful for being introduced to Business English before starting my college courses. It gave me a solid foundation and really boosted my confidence. If you’re considering Advance English Academy, I can’t recommend it enough. The teachers and staff truly care about your success and are there to support you every step of the way. My advice? Stay dedicated to what you’re learning, and you’ll see just how far you can go.

Fantastic experience: I think it's a good school. The only thing I would recommend is that they add more tables and comfortable chairs in the rest areas, as we are needed.Also, It would be nice if they built a school near or around San José.

Negative experience: Low quality teaching!

Fantastic experience: Advance Ingles academy me ha gustado, porque es una escuela con alumnos agradables, buena infraestructura y con muchas posiblidades de conocer gente. No solo te da la posiblidad de aprender en clases sino que organiza salidas a diversos lugares en donde puedes compartir y practicar ingles en lugares mas parecidos a lo cotidiano. Lo mejor de todo es que a diferencia de otros colegios este es bastante asequible ya que el precio no es excesivo y entrega el mismo servicio de calidad que entregan los otros colegios, yo estuve en otro colegio y siento que la diferencia no fue mucha, la verdad nada, a decir verdad advance ingles academy me gusto mas ya que es mucho mas practico ya que ensenan lo que sirve.
