Part-Time English Classes — Online or In Boston

Part-Time English Classes Built Around Your Schedule

If you work a full-time job, run a household, or balance studies in another field, a traditional full-time program isn’t always realistic. ISAL’s part-time English course gives you the structure of a serious ESL program with the flexibility you actually need, choose where you study, choose a class time that works for you, and get to work.

You can learn English in Boston at our campus if you prefer the energy of a real classroom, or join the same program online from anywhere in the world. Both formats are taught by experienced native-speaking instructors and follow the same rigorous ISAL curriculum, no watered-down version of the program just because you’re part-time.

What Makes ISAL’s Part-Time English Classes Different?

A lot of ESL courses online give you a recorded video and call it a class. A lot of English schools in Boston pack 30 students into a lecture hall. ISAL does neither. Our part-time English classes, in person in Boston or online, are small-group, interactive, and taught by real teachers, so every student speaks every session and gets feedback that actually moves the needle.

Our students are busy. Some are nurses on rotating shifts. Some are parents during the day. Some are professionals working with international teams across multiple time zones. Some live a 15-minute walk from our Boston campus and just want a classroom they can sit down in twice a week. Our part-time format is built for all of them.

You’ll be taught by supportive, experienced, native-speaking instructors who specialize in adult learners. Whether you’re prepping for work, immigration, university, or everyday life in the US, the lesson is tailored to what you actually need to say in English.

A Real Part-Time English Course, Not Just a Few Videos

Our part-time English classes cover speaking, listening, reading, writing, and grammar, with a clear focus on real-world English. You’ll practice the conversations, emails, calls, and interviews you actually have to handle, not just textbook drills.

The curriculum mirrors the quality and intensity of our full-time program, just spread across a part-time schedule. Whether you’re preparing for an exam, a job, university applications, or everyday life in an English-speaking environment, you’ll leave each class with something you can use the same day, in the classroom in Boston or on Zoom at home.

Learn English in Boston, In Person at the ISAL Campus

If you live in or near the city, you can learn English in Boston at our local campus. Our in-person English classes in Boston are taught by the same native-speaking instructors who run our online program, small groups, real conversation, and the kind of focused environment you only get in a real classroom.

Compared with bigger English schools in Boston, ISAL keeps class sizes intentionally small. That means more speaking time per student, more individual feedback, and a teacher who actually remembers your name, your goals, and the specific things you’re working on.

You’ll choose the time of day that fits your life, morning, afternoon, or evening, and meet twice a week for two hours per class. Same 12-week curriculum, same $50/week tuition, same first-class-free offer as our online program.

Morning, Afternoon & Evening English Classes

Pick the time of day that fits your life. Our part-time English classes meet two times per week for two hours per session, in-person at our Boston campus or online, with options in the morning, afternoon, and evening so students on different shift patterns and in different time zones can all find a seat.

If you work a 9–5, evening English classes after dinner are a popular pick. If you’re a night-shift worker or a stay-at-home parent, our morning English classes free up the rest of your day. Joining online from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, or South America? Choose the slot that lines up with your local time zone.

Tuition is $50 per week, and when you register today you’ll get your first class free, plus continuous support throughout the program.

Live in Boston, or Learn From Anywhere in the World

In Boston? Walk into our campus and learn English face-to-face. Outside Boston, or outside the US entirely? Our ESL online classes mean your location doesn’t limit you. Students join ISAL from the US, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, and we run multiple time-of-day options so you can find a class that fits your local clock.

For online students, all you need is a laptop or tablet, a steady internet connection, and a willingness to speak up.
