About the Center

The English Language Center (ELC) at the University of Bahrain has a 32-year history of providing language learning and support to newly admitted students and other integrated programs. Through the Foundation Program, the ELC is tasked to raise the students’ standard of English. The University of Bahrain considers the Foundation Program as one of the institution’s pillars for two key reasons; the university delivers its mainstream programs in English and students’ proficiency of the language is vital for their professional success.

Today, the ELC has flourished through a team of about 50 dedicated and dynamic ELT educators. They provide students with high-quality instruction in learning the English Language. In addition to the emphasis on sound pedagogy in classroom instruction, the ELC has embraced the effective use of technology to enhance teaching and learning experience. This approach is adopted to motivate students of digital age and promote the possibility for remote autonomous learning by students at their own pace.
