The English Center by Elisabeth is a small English language academy located in Palomares del Río, in the Aljarafe area near Seville, Andalusia. The school was founded by Elisabeth, a qualified bilingual teacher and director with a Master’s in Bilingual Education and another in School Administration, and has been running for over 20 years. It’s a member of ACEIA (the Association of Language Teaching Centres of Andalusia) and is an official exam preparation centre. Reviews describe an active, playful teaching methodology, particularly for younger learners.

The school offers English courses for all ages, from age 2 through to adults, with a curriculum built around a natural language-acquisition method rather than textbooks — using games, songs and varied activities to encourage real use of the language. All teachers are native English speakers. The academy also prepares students for official English exams, with students reportedly achieving certifications up to C1 level.

Given its size and location, The English Center works with a local community of students in Palomares del Río and the surrounding Aljarafe area, ranging from very young children through primary and secondary school students to adult learners. Class sizes are kept small.
