- About the ESL School
- Founded in 1982, LASC is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training (ACCET), a US Department of Education recognized agency. LASC is authorized under Federal law to enroll nonimmigrant alien students. LASC's Designated School Officials are certified by the National Association of Foreign Student Advisers (NAFSA). LASC has agreements with numerous colleges, universities and graduate programs that our students frequently transfer to. Foreign government organizations, including the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission, have also listed LASC as an approved ESL program.
LASC's job as ESL educators goes far beyond simply teaching English. Its one thing to teach a student English, but it is a completely different thing to teach them the experience of English. With a forward-thinking attitude, the school is constantly striving to be at the forefront of the latest technology and learning methodologies in the industry. LASC's curriculum is structured on a blended learning model, one that is heavily e-based and fully corpora informed. In so doing, the school is able to flip classrooms, allowing students to dictate their own education and interact with the language as they learn it. LASC strongly believes in providing an authentic education, one that simulates English in action, as it exists today. It is the school's goal as an institution to ensure that, upon completing the program, students have reached levels of proficiency that meet or exceed CERF standards. More importantly, however, it is LASC's goal to endow students with the capability to practically apply those skills in future pursuits, whatever they may be. - Fast Facts

- Housing
- For students who prefer an independent lifestyle, off-campus residences provide more privacy and offer opportunities to interact with people in the community outside the school environment. Students are encouraged to make their housing arrangements as early as possible due to the limited amount of space available.
- Surrounding Area
- The campus is in Koreatown, one of the main cultural areas in urban Los Angeles. Koreatown itself is full of great restaurants and vibrant nightlife. Land marks and unique neighborhoods can be found in every direction from Koreatown: Hollywood and the Sunset Strip to the north, downtown and Echo Park to the east, USC to the south, and Culpável City and Venice to the west. Students have access to LA's growing public transportation system as we are just a block away form the Metro station. This campus suits those who really want to experience the world-famous city of Los Angeles.

My English improved rapidly!I really like this school. Before learning English, I had been to several schools, but none had an atmosphere as good as here. Here, I have met classmates from many different countries and experienced various cultures. They have become my friends, and we still keep in touch. What satisfies me the most are the teachers, especially Ned and Chris. They are both outstanding, and I can feel their dedication and sense of responsibility in teaching us. During my time at this school, my English improved rapidly, and now I have started my professional studies. I am very grateful to this school for giving me many wonderful memories. I highly recommend it to people who want to learn English. I hope you, like me, can gain a lot here.

So many great memories!I had so many great memories at this school. The teachers were all kind and patient with me and the students are diverse so I was able to make new friends from all around the world. I definitely recommend talking to a representative first from LASC, because they are knowledgeable and they were able to answer all my questions regarding my Visa at the time.

I really enjoy LASC Language School for its events and field trips with classmates and teachers. The Halloween costume party last year was fun, and learning baseball from Teacher Ned was a great experience. The school is also conveniently located near good food and museums like LACMA and the Broad. Lastly, I'm grateful for the kind staff and representatives. They were very nice and helped me with my goals and plans during my stay in LA!
