How do you transfer high schools in San Francisco?

What are good english schools for foreigners in downtown San Francisco?

  • I'm moving to San Francisco with my wife and she would like to improve her spoken and written English, what are the best private schools in the city?

  • Answer:

    I've not learned English in San Francisco but I have got experience of learning a foreign language (I learned French in Brussels and Czech in Prague to a pretty fluent extent). What has worked very well for me is a combination of private, 1:1 lessons (find a teacher who suits your needs and personality, don't worry unduly about institutional affiliation - language schools are far from bastions of academic excellence), spending time to do homework and reading (a teacher who I'm scared of helps me do that) and spending time speaking to natives. If the desire is to meet other foreigners in order to have shared experiences of getting to know the place and culture I think a language school can be valuable, but they are not the best way to actually learn a language, in my experience.

I would highly recommend Transworld Schools! Great Price compared to other schools in SF. Great Location – downtown San Francisco, on Sutter Street. Also the Community of students from more than 60 countries is a differential, there is no dominant language group so everyone speaks English all the time. There are student lounges, study and lunch areas – plenty of great space for students to meet after class and hang out with friends for conversation and study groups. They offer a flexible time and course schedule to fit your needs. Transworld Schools: ESL | CTESOLhttp://www.transworldschools.com/
