English school in San Francisco – Berkeley

Free-thinkers and intellectuals flock to this beautiful college town on the eastern shores of the San Francisco Bay

Our San Francisco – Berkeley school

A focal point of hippie culture and the Civil Rights movement during the 1960s, Berkeley is still a magnet for artists, idealists and philosophers whose ideas challenge the mainstream. At the heart of the city’s forward-looking culture is UC Berkeley, regularly ranked among the world’s top 10 universities and just a few minutes from our English school.
