Fantastic experience: 日本人です。ESTAで3ヶ月のみの超短期です。 学校がオフィス街のような所にあるので、安全で清潔だと思います。 無料で1週間のお試し期間があるので、雰囲気がわかり大変助かります。 入学してから1ヶ月が経ちました。 私は全く英語が話せないし聞き取れないので、まだ日本人以外の友達はできていませんが、 学校イベント(無料のものから有料のものまで)があり参加して、別のクラスの外国の人とも顔見知りになれました。 受付の方も、先生も、生徒も親切で、居心地がいいです。F1ビザをとって友達を増やしたいと考えるようになりました。

We would love to have you join our activities whenever possible, and we hope you will make even more international friends so you can practice your English.
Thank you for your review!

Fantastic experience: I always remember my time studying at LSI with great warmth. LSI not only helped me improve my English skills but also prepared me for college, which I recently graduated from with High Honors! Steven, Mariellen, Michelle, Brianna Porter, Calvin, and Miriam, as well as the wonderful staff at the front desk, were always incredibly attentive and supportive, and I am very grateful to them. At the school, I developed essential skills such as writing essays in different styles, giving presentations, and discussing the books we read - the skills that turned out to be extremely valuable during my college studies. Thank you to everyone at LSI for creating such a supportive and inspiring learning environment. I truly recommend LSI to anyone who wants not only to improve their English but also to gain the academic skills and confidence needed to succeed in college and beyond!

Fantastic experience: My experience at this school has been absolutely incredible. What I love most is getting to connect and learn every day with people from all over the world — the diversity is so enriching and makes every day feel unique and special. The building is really comfortable, with modern, clean, and well-designed facilities that are perfect for both studying and hanging out. Plus, everyone here — staff and classmates alike — is extremely kind and always willing to help. I felt welcomed from the very first day. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I’m really grateful to Language Systems for improving my English, because here I found a cozy and educational space. The most interesting lessons, activities outside the classroom and new friends are waiting for you here! After 1.5 years studying at the school, I’ve also had the incredible opportunity to be part of the staff team and improve my English even more, meeting students from all over the world and being able to connect, share and laugh with them is inspiring. I love being part of this team and I can’t wait to see what else we accomplish in the coming years.

Fantastic experience: I definitely recommend this school to anyone who wants to study in California! I had the pleasure to study at LSI for a long time and it's a great place to improve your English and make good friends. They are always receiving new students from all over the world, so you also get the chance to connect with people from different cultures and know more about other countries. The staff is always kind and very helpful, and the coordinators and manager are always creating new activities at the campus and outside so teachers and students can spend more time learning and having fun. I will never forget my experience at LSI!!

Negative experience: 1. I met a teacher and was disqualified from the class since I didn't participate in class activities. When I was in the classroom, she would ask the school leader to drive me out of the classroom in front of my classmates. 2. Sometimes, students of different levels are taught together by one teacher, so some activities are too easy for me to participate in. I was watching an English book quietly. I neither disturbed the teacher's class nor affected other students' studies. The teacher forced me to join the classroom activities. Since I didn't join, she complained that I was rude and disrespectful to the teacher. And I was deprived of my qualifications to attend her classes. 3. By the way, most teachers are friendly and easy to get along with, and some teachers are tough to get along with. Hope you can meet good teachers.

Thank you for your feedback. We welcome your comments so that we can continue to provide students with the best possible experience here in California. Language Systems is obligated to follow rules and regulations mandated by the U.S. Government for people here on a student visa. Although we are sorry that you feel uncomfortable about participating in class activities, our teachers are obligated to follow laws required by the U.S. government, so we cannot accommodate any non-compliant students. In addition, mutual respect is important in the classroom experience. If a student refuses to participate in any way (even sitting quietly and studying something else), this is a sign of disrespect to the teacher and to fellow classmates. All students have access to the class rules as well as SEVIS requirements upon enrollment.

In addition to the government requirements, our teachers care deeply about student progress and involvement. They encourage participation and do not ignore any students. Our teachers are professionals and know how to adjust their lessons to meet the various levels of students in the classroom. It is considered rude for a student to refuse to participate and criticize the teacher in front of other students. We hope that you understand the situation as we strive to respond to all our students' concerns.

Negative experience: Some teachers good but some not good. Did not feel enough preparation for community college. Better teachers at El Camino. More for not serious students who don't care about lean English and want to have fun and not study so much.

Thank you for your feedback. At all Language Systems campuses, PCs and managers appreciate feedback whenever a student is dissatisfied with their classes and we do our best to fix these kinds of issues. Not all of our courses are designed to prepare students for college, but our PCs are available to advise students who are considering higher education and recommend the courses that are more likely to prepare them for college work.

Fantastic experience: I was able to make very nice memories at LSI. My teacher and LSI staff are kind and nice people. Classes are fun every time, and there are events with other school belonging of LSI several times a year, and They have also activities on Friday. Besides classes, I can make friends with my classmates and teachers, so I made a lot of friends! ! Also, it is very convenient because there is a big shopping mall in the location. You can watch movies or shopping there before and after class. Transportation is very convenient because the bus stop is nearby. To learn English in Torrance, please select LSI.
