Our Program
Inclusive English Classes for People with
Intellectual Disabilities and Special Educational Needs
English For Us is a pioneering program that makes learning English accessible, motivating, and useful for everyday life. We work with students with intellectual disabilities and special educational needs (SEN), helping them build confidence, social skills, and opportunities for inclusion.
Founded in 2015, our program combines adapted online classes, cultural activities, and international collaboration. In partnership with PennWest University (USA), our students learn with native teachers and connect with other cultures from home.
👉 What started as a summer project is now a growing international program that transforms lives through English.
How We Teach
English For Us was created as an inclusive digital ecosystem that supports students, teachers, and families. We have developed a unique methodology, specifically designed to ensure the best English learning experience for people with special educational needs (SEN) and intellectual disabilities.
Our program is dynamic and innovative, aligned with the highest international standards in both language teaching and special education.
👉 Thanks to this approach, English For Us is more than a program—it is an inclusive and global ecosystem, where learning English also means gaining confidence, independence, and opportunities.
With these six pillars, English For Us becomes more than just an English program — it’s an inclusive global community where students grow in confidence, independence, and connection with the world.
