LSI Berkeley (English language school)

I had a wonderful experience studying at LSI. The teachers here are truly professional, patient, and caring. They always made sure that every student understood the lesson and felt comfortable participating in class. The atmosphere was friendly and supportive, and I met classmates from all over the world, which made learning even more enjoyable. My English improved every single day — not just grammar and vocabulary, but especially my speaking confidence. I learned so many new words and felt myself getting better week by week. One thing I really loved is that every week the school organizes outdoor activities. Sometimes we visit museums, sometimes we go out for group dinners. These activities helped me experience real American culture and made my time here even more meaningful and fun. I LOVE LSI, THANK YOU!!!

I spent one and a half months at LSI, and it has been one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Andy and Rod were incredibly friendly and kind; they were always ready to help with any questions I had. Andy, in particular, stood out as one of the best teachers I've ever had. He has a wonderful sense of humor and an exceptional way of teaching. The classmates at LSI were also all very friendly and outgoing. Even though we had only known each other for a month, it felt as if we had been old friends for years. Thanks to all of them for creating such wonderful memories. I’m going to miss this.

Studying at LSI has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was met with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine commitment to helping every student grow and succeed. The teachers are not only native speakers but also highly skilled educators who truly care about each student’s progress. Their lessons are dynamic, engaging, and tailored to real-life communication — making learning not only effective but enjoyable. The staff at LSI go above and beyond to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. Whether it’s academic support, visa guidance, or just day-to-day student life, they are always there with a smile and a solution. LSI brings together students from all over the world, creating a unique cultural exchange that makes learning even more enriching. I made friends for life here, and learned far more than just a language.

Great teacher, great school with friendly staff and helpful. Andy is my teacher. He is so funny and caring towards his students. We are not only learning English, we also study outside the textbooks.

Moving to a new country was overwhelming — until I found LSI. This school didn’t just teach me English — it gave me structure, support, and a sense of belonging. From day one, I felt welcomed and understood. The lessons are sharp, interactive, and focused on real-world communication. I saw progress within weeks — not just in grammar, but in confidence. LSI makes every dollar worth it. You’re not paying for a classroom — you’re getting a community, high-quality education, and real results. It’s more than a language school — it’s a launchpad.

Hello, I'm from Panama. My experience with LSI has been very positive, from the first day of the admissions process until arriving in San Francisco. It was simple and fast. Robert, the director, is very kind and attentive to the students. He is attentive to everything from the moment you leave your country until you arrive at LSI. My experience with the classes has been very interesting. The teachers use many different methods. Sometimes we complete homework, and when we're done, we play different games related to the activities and assignments. They also take excursions to tourist and cultural sites. There's a very friendly girl named Nara; she's like a tour guide for the students at LSI; she knows a lot of places. Activities with her take place on Wednesdays and Fridays after class. Thanks to them, I saw the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and Oracle Park, the stadium in San Francisco, California. All that said, I highly recommend LSI. It's an unforgettable experience, and you'll learn a lot and practice your English.

LSI truly feels like home. It’s more than just a language school — it’s a place where you grow, connect, and discover what you’re capable of. I came here for TOEFL prep and ended up gaining so much more: confidence, career direction, and real support from amazing teachers.
