The company offices are located in Falmouth, a well-known harbour on the south coast of Cornwall.

CEOLS is currently comprised of a team of eleven experts who know that every student calls for a different amount of help and time to improve the language they are learning. They carry out individual placement tests if the student has previous knowledge to ascertain the level. They also study the appropriate learning styles and strategies each learner requires. This individual needs analysis takes place during the first three weeks. During that time, students are guaranteed results and, if they are not satisfied, they will be fully refunded.

CEOLS carefully selects their staff which is why they can guarantee that the staff will be with you right from start to finish. CEOLS’ students define their teachers as keen, innovative and dedicated. The CEOLS research programme entails constantly researching how to improve spoken languages by helping students develop the skills they need in order to communicate effectively.

CEOLS is flexible and convenient. Students can learn at their convenience, at any time of day or night. They can fit your schedule and you do not need to travel because you can follow their courses from the comfort of your own home.
All you need is a headset and high speed Internet. CEOLS will provide a selection of tools for online conversation with as many as 15 simultaneous partners. Students will have the classroom available in the comfort of their own home, in their hotel room, plane or train during their travels.

Wherever you are, whenever you need us, we are just a click away.
