WESLI has been training teacher since 1999 and General English since 1981. You can find us in downtown Madison, Wisconsin – just across the street from the state capitol building. Madison, located in the heart of the mid-west, is a medium-sized city, which is friendly, very safe and inexpensive to live in. There are a number of universities in town, for example the internationally top-ranked University of Wisconsin Madison. Students can choose to stay with homestay families or in our Dormitory.
Many of our staff and teachers have been with us at WESLI for more than 15 years and most of our administrative staff members also teach or have done so in the past. That way students can be sure to always have a helping hand from someone with a passion for helping students and the experience to do so.
We offer 7 levels (zero level to University Bridge) of English instruction in the areas of Business English, General English & American Culture, Test Prep. and Academic Preparation. Over 40 universities and colleges accept our students without a TOEFL score.

studierte Allgemeines EnglischWESLI Rocks!!!
Everyone knows I LOVE WESLI so much!!!
I'd studied at WESLI for one year. I took almost all of classes with almost all of teachers. I gotta say WESLI teachers are different - their personalities and teaching styles, but all of them are AMAZING! I learned different strategies from different teachers. I practiced and experienced them, and then I was able to find my own way to learn English. Moreover, I can continue working on English efficiently by myself, even when I'm out of school, which is soooo incredible!!!
I'd been studying for almost 20 years before studying at WESLI, but honestly, it was the first time that I felt so excited being a student. I was EAGER to learn and even looking forward to some challenges every day. Now, I'm not only confident in speaking English, but also confident in myself. The things I learned at WESLI were far more than just English.
Thank you, WESLI, the best school ever!

studierte Englisch Akademische VorbereitungI love WESLI
I studied in WESLI for more than a year and I can surely that I love that school so much! I always recommend it to people who want to improve their English skills in an academic level. They really helped and prepared me for college in the United States. I got admitted in one of the best Bible colleges in Chicago and the USA. If I had gone to a different school, I wouldn't have gotten admitted. Thank you WESLI staff and teachers for giving me more than what I thought I needed!

studierte Englisch Akademische VorbereitungAwesome ESL school!
I attended WESLI for about nine months (or about 5 sessions) back in 2007. My English was pretty basic, I could write and read but I couldn't speak at all (mainly because I was afraid to make mistakes while talking). Classes at WESLI are challenging and require a fair amount of work so I remember it was hard to keep up sometimes. Teachers and staff were super friendly and helpful and the school's location was definitely convenient (5 min walk to State St!). I've been really successful academically after I completed my studies at WESLI, I recently graduated with a Master's in Business from Edgewood College and also got my undergraduate degree at the same school. I wouldn't be where I'm at if I hadn't learned and mastered my English skills at WESLI. I loved everything about WESLI, My teachers, classes, the friends and memories I made!
I would definitely recommend WESLI to those who want to improve their English skills!

studierte Englisch Akademische VorbereitungWesli is an excellent school to learn English!
They have very good teachers and staff that help you to learn and practice the language. You can get prepared to take different certification tests, and at the same time learn about general culture of USA.
My favorite thing was to be able to interact with people from all over the world.
I'd definitely recommend Wesli.

studierte Allgemeines EnglischBeing a part of WESLI family
I think many people want to study English but people may be afraid of studying abroad alone especially if you aren't familiar with the place. I was kind of that person. But I was very surprised when coming to WESLI. Teachers were very kind, interesting and helpful. Also it was easy to make friends from different countries because there were many activities and I stayed at the dormitory so I could stayed with friends. I felt like being a part of WESLI family. Also, there were many levels so I could improve myself.
I was very shy to speak English but now here I am! I could be friendly and am enjoying to speak English.
This is because of WESLI. I am very happy to study there. I miss WESLI so much too xoxo

studierte Allgemeines EnglischGreat experience
WESLI is definitely a good place to go to if you want to come to the USA to learn English but also to have a generally great experience. My favorite thing about being a student at WESLI was that, besides English, you also have the chance to learn about so many different cultures and interact with a lot of people from other countries, and I think that's a huge enriching experience. WESLI is also very good in training you for school if you're planning on staying in the states for your degree. Everybody is really nice and very willing to help as well. I've been a student at WESLI in two different ocations and both times I was very satisfied.

My experience in Wesli and Madison was great. Loved the school, classes, teachers and friends. I improved my English skills and Wesli gave me a letter recommendation to study a PhD class at the UW. Madison is a lovely place to live. Everything is beautiful.

studierte Englisch Akademische VorbereitungBest time of my Life!
My experience in WESLI was wonderful. They helped me to prepare for my MBA. When I arrived I was a beginner and the teachers helped me to improve my English skills and to overcome my fears about learning - I learned more than a language, but also about different cultures and to be more independent. WESLI is so much more than a language school, it is also a family.
