Why IES

Since 1982, IES has brought world languages to Bay Area schools and communities. Our Six-Step Methodology moves learners from listening to speaking with confidence, and our Five Pillars (Six-Step Methodology, Grammar Connections, Culture in Context, Assessment for Learning, and Professional Practice) keep every class engaging, ACTFL-aligned, and led by trained, supported teachers.

Let's begin with a conversation.
