Each of our Los Angeles partner schools offers something unique—the right choice depends on what you’re looking to get out of the experience.

Programmes run from one week upward, but the longer you can stay, the better results you’ll see when it comes to your spoken English. ESL courses in Los Angeles offer complete flexibility, so you can get the perfect balance between learning intensity and duration for you.

We’ll help you find a place to live in Los Angeles, whatever your preference and budget. Student residences are great for instant community and conveniences like fitness centres and study lounges—perfect if you’re prioritising social connections.

If you’re looking for cultural immersion with American families, homestays are a good choice—complete with home-cooked meals and local insights you won't find in guidebooks.

For maximum independence, private studios give you personal space to recharge.

Our advisors can explain what's available, compare costs, and match you with your perfect accommodation.

While we specialise in full-time programmes, our general English courses still leave plenty of time for other commitments. Class schedules vary by school, so if you have a particular timetable in mind, let us know—we'll do our best to find a school whose schedule aligns with your needs.

Los Angeles is safe for international students, particularly in popular student neighbourhoods like Westwood and Irvine. Our partner schools are located in well-maintained, student-friendly districts. Like in any major city, you should avoid isolated areas late at night, stay alert on public transport and keep your valuables secure. Use common sense, stay aware of your surroundings, and you'll find LA welcoming and secure.

It’s unlikely you’ll be able to work while studying English in Los Angeles. International students with an F-1 student visa face strict work limitations during English language studies. You cannot work off-campus, though on-campus employment (up to 20 hours weekly) may be available after your first academic year at some institutions—typically university-affiliated language centres rather than independent ESL schools. B-2 tourist visa holders cannot work at all. Unauthorised employment risks visa cancellation and deportation.
