An excellent institute to learn English, its teachers teach with a lot of love and above all with fun and didactic methodology to teach, April is strict in her teaching methods but forges responsibility in her students and the teacher Cinthya who with each of her games we fell in love with this path that we just started

From the first time I opened the door at LIT, I have been given the best help any student can hope for. Ms. Susan & Mr. Tim made me feel at ease & guide me efficiently. I am super happy with the low cost of the tuition. Along with the strong grammar basis in the lower levels, LIT concentrates on student-centered & communication skill-centered English learning.All the LIT teachers have been amazing to me. They are kind & encourage the students to use English in many different and unique ways.I am so happy with great teachers & good friends in LIT! I strongly recommend LIT if you are looking for good English school.

My experience with LIT has always been a lot of attention & affection. From the beginning, when I looked for the school to get my F1 status, I was treated very well & all documents very well explained. They helped me to obtain my F1 status & also provided me with an excellent education of the English language. I went to LIT because they offer an affordable price to study, but when I started attending classes, I saw how much they became a family for me. All the people involved, like administration, cafeteria, teachers, security, everyone is always treated with a lot of respect. As we are going through difficult pandemic period, the school continues to support me in many ways. They do not treat me as just a student, but as a member of the LIT family. I have been studying for two years at LIT & completing the TOEFL prep course. I can say that when I finish my program, I will miss all the family that always gave me affection and attention when I needed it most.I am so happy with great teachers & good friends in LIT! I strongly recommend LIT if you are looking for good English school.

In my experience at LIT, I can say that it has been the best ESL school I’ve attended.When I first came to this school, I didn’t really understand anything, and I couldn’t communicate in English. But thanks to the excellent teachers, I can say today that my progress is wonderful and I can understand and I can defend myself.One of the best things that LIT has is the kindness of each teacher, the desire & passion that they have to teach each one of us which made me eager to learn more every day.I am so happy with great teachers & good friends in LIT! I strongly recommend LIT if you are looking for good English school.

LIT is one of the best selections if you want to continue your English education. I have been studying here since one and half years ago. I was studying at another one when I came to the USA, and I see the difference between studying at LIT and other schools. Now, I have been accepted to a university for Spring 2016. LIT has good instructors who can help you in your study and a nice environment that will help you to improve your language. They have a nice facility that contains a gymnasium, computer rooms, and a very nice café. Also, students take an interesting and fun trip every session.Indeed, I enjoy my time here, so I learn and enjoy in the same time.
