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. Students are welcome to study for any length of time and we are very proud to offer a 5-week Teacher Training Program, including a 30-hour Practicum.

WESLI has partnered with the University of Wisconsin College System to offer three- credit college classes at WESLI. This is a great opportunity for WESLI students to earn college credit while still studying at WESLI. These credits can be transferred to UW schools and count towards a student’s general education requirements, no matter what major they choose.

estudiado Cursos de Inglés con fines académicosWonderful ESL School
WESLI prepared me for my life in the US. Well experienced and passionate teachers with unique back grounds taught me not only English, but also life. I went to the US with not knowing the language or about life right after high school in Japan. But I never felt lonely because of people around me. Of course friends but also teachers made me comfortable. They taught us English, hung out with us, and invited us for dinner. Interaction with teachers made me comfortable and motivated to learn English. With that I was able to finished 700 course in WESLI in 2005, got a letter of recommendation to University of Wisconsin Whitewater, graduated with BA in Social Work, went back to Japan working at the duty free shop in Tokyo international airport, did internship in Japanese NGO in the Philippines supporting children in need, and now I am a project coordinator in the Japanese NGO in the Philippines. I would like to thank WESLI for everything that they offered us because without WESLI, I would not be able to find what I like to do in my life. I really like WESLI, so I recommended 2 Japanese friends to go to WESLI, they went and enjoyed studying there. So if you ask me where to study English, my answer will always be "WESLI." They have more activities now so I would have given 5 hearts if I am there now ;) If you are looking for an ESL, do not even think twice, just apply for WESLI ;)

estudiado Formación del profesorado de InglésMy Better Life Can\'t without WESLI
WESLI is the perfect and ideal destination for English learners; take me for an example, I started from the very beginning level and all the way to English Teacher Training. Of course, nothing was easy for me to go through all of the courses; I eventually did with the teachers' help and all my efforts. I'm now teaching English and having my own English school in Taiwan. In short, trust WESLI and yourself; if you want it, you can do it with WESLI. By the way, my starting year at WESLI is from 2004 to 2006. The earliest start year in the drop-down box here is 2006. Anyway, I can't thank WESLI enough! :D

estudiado Cursos de Inglés con fines académicosI 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!

estudiado Cursos de Inglés con fines académicosAwesome 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!

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.
