Welcome to
The Balkan School of English

The Balkan School of English was set up in the early 70s by Lotte Balkan. Taken over by her son Gregory, the school steadily expanded and established itself as a highly reputable ESOL centre in and around the canton of Neuchâtel. From time to time, incidentally, we are asked whether the name 'Balkan' has any connection with The Balkans region. The name, of course, simply refers to the two people who originally set up the school.

Today, we provide an extensive range of English courses (for other languages refer to our link ALF-Ecole de langues) at all levels, in-company or in-school for adults & young learners, on a group and individual basis. You will see the variety of course options open to you reflecting our school's adaptability and the versatility of our international team of certified  language trainers.

Conveniently situated in the centre of Neuchâtel, just a short walk from the lake, our school offers a warm, friendly and lively learning environment. Our team is here to help you to enjoy learning this language and to effectively reach your personal and/or professional goals.
