NESE’s curriculum exposes students to a wide range of authentic spoken English and real-life listening comprehension resources including films, audio news programs and guest speakers from the very first levels. These resources prepare you to understand the English that you will hear outside of NESE in a variety of settings. By correcting your usage consistently, NESE teachers prepare you to use your English confidently in a wide range of social, academic and professional settings.


Never be afraid to make a mistake. Your teacher is here to help you. If you try and are correct, that is to your credit. If you try and you make a mistake, that is an ideal opportunity for your teacher to help you, and for you (and the class) to learn something new. Trying is important; perfection 100% of the time is not. Remember, “Mistakes are not important; Understanding is”TM
