We work with teachers who are passionate about meeting people and playing an essential role in their lifelong learning.  Most of our students are highly motivated working professionals whose companies sponsor their language training. Our clients are concentrated in pharmaceuticals, IT, and finance, mostly in Japan. Get a whirlwind tour: NEI in 2 Minutes.

Teachers work from pre-assigned question sets as the basis for a guided conversation. Homework is selected through the system, which matches assignments to learners’ profiles. There is no lesson planning required. Beyond correcting grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary, you deliberately practice the skills our students need in meetings with colleagues overseas: explaining their work clearly, summarizing a discussion, making a recommendation, and disagreeing politely. You get to learn about life sciences and technology from experts in their fields — while they learn from you how to explain themselves confidently and comprehensibly in English.
