Our highly- qualified and experienced team of teaching specialists has been recruited from Mauritania, Britain, and other English-speaking countries ensuring a broad base of expertise and knowledge.

Language training is also offered to those already in employment with the government, the private sector and other entities; especially those for whom higher levels of English language competence is a growing need. In-Service support is also extended to teachers in the first phase of training to become qualified to serve in government schools.
