Columbia School of English

It's a nice school. There are all friendly to students. The teachers are very good.

Would you like to meet unprofessional, unintelligent, and unworthy of your time? Then you have come to the right place! Congrats! Meet Andrew Park - the worst executive director a school has seen. Save yourself time and money. Join another ESL school that will be more valuable, with more support and efficiency. I do not recommend this school at all. I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Park shuts down the doors of this school in the next few months. Avoid at all costs!

Columbia School of English is FANTASTIC! My cousin from Belgium wanted to come to America to improve his English before applying to graduate MBA programs. We brought Albert to Seattle but were VERY disappointed by the quality of programs here. He wasted 6 months barely learning any English in a state university program where the teachers didn't care about him or push him hard. We were desperate to find a good program in the Northwest, so we drove down to Portland to check out the schools. Columbia was by far the most impressive. Excellent facilities, small classes, teachers that are really caring, and a rigorous program too. CSE also offered GMAT prep classes, which really helped Albert. Isabella, Erin, Andrew, and Leslie really took care of Albert and now he's getting an MBA at UCLA. I can't thank CSE enough!

They don't even deserve one star. In winter term 2014, they have one class for level 1 and 2!!! How can you explain the same material for two different levels? If you are in Portland, I encourage you to study at PSU or ELS.
