About Global Leadership English School

The Global Leadership English School (GLES) is a private English language school located in Temascalcingo, State of Mexico. The goal of GLES is to teach practical American English that students can use in school, work, or the United States. All classes focus on listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills, with special emphasis on learning how to speak and communicate. In addition, the curriculum includes leadership training, environmental awareness, and social justice education to prepare students to become leaders in their communities, their country, and the world.

 

 Founded in 2009, GLES currently has an enrollment of approximately 80 students each semester. Classes are taught by three full-time teachers, who teach all levels of English to students of all ages.

 

In the words of Amy Alicia Gee, teacher for the 2013-2014 school year:

 

"My year in Temascalcingo was a great experience as everyone I met was very welcoming and helpful. Working at GLES was a true learning experience, and Aimee and Jesus give their 110% to the school. Surrounded by the beautiful mountains, Temascalcingo reflects what true Mexican life is like away from the tourist beaches and busy cities. I am thankful to have had the experience I did living and working there."
