“There are many things to do in Spokane. Often times, I get to participate in activities with my teachers and class mates. The school is very organized and I appreciate how professional they are.”

Umut (Turkey)

“SCEL has great teachers. They are both friendly and patient and great friends as well. In the EAP class, the teacher has very valuable lessons that work to develop our English skills in reading, writing, and English. I feel very good to have learned English at SCEL.”

Danny Pan (China)

“EAP is the greatest English class I’ve been through. I mean I had been craving to be in EAP since I was in the beginning class. Mike, EAP’s teacher, who I always call “2F teacher” ( “2F” stands for FABULOUS and FUN). Well, it was a crucial thing for me to get in EAP, and you will know why I said that after you get in and graduate from it.”

Khuyen Nguyen Siharath (Vietnam)

“Thank you for everything during whole class time! It is unforgettable time for me. I hope that you have a good luck for everything in the future!! and stay long time in SCEL^^ you are such a goooooood teacher haha Thanks mike:D Take care.”

Celina (Korea)

“I think SCEL has very good teachers. I have been studying in Mike’s class for two quarters and I have enjoyed every minute of it. He is pretty strict but it is good for us; it keeps us focused and on task. When I came here I didn’t speak any English. Now, I am only a couple of weeks away from getting in to Spokane Community College.”

Koji (Japan)

“SCEL equipped me with the English skills needed to excel at college. I learned grammar, speaking, and writing. The teachers are excellent and I greatly appreciate all the help I received with Yelena. I still keep in contact with her, my teachers, and my classmates.”
