At the English Language Learning Institute (ELLI), we believe that teachers and learners thrive best in a community built on innovation, collaboration, and lifelong learning. We are a group of passionate educators who came together with one vision: to reimagine English education in Japan and beyond.

We provide professional development programs, such as the TESOL Pathways 120-hour Certification, along with workshops, seminars, and research initiatives that equip teachers with the tools they need for today’s classrooms. Our work extends beyond training—ELLI is also a hub for resource development, intercultural exchange, and teacher networks where ideas and best practices can be shared freely.

Guided by our values of Equity, Lifelong Learning, Integrity, and Excellence, we design programs that are flexible, research-driven, and globally connected. Whether you are just beginning your teaching journey or are an experienced educator seeking new challenges, you’ll find ELLI a place where you can learn, grow, and lead.

Though young, ELLI carries a bold vision for the future: to shape a dynamic, inclusive, and forward-thinking educational landscape. We invite you to join us—together, we can transform classrooms, empower teachers, and inspire learners to meet the demands of a changing world.
