Learning English takes place inside and outside the classroom. At Golden Gate Language School, students are offered the best of both: excellent instruction and a central, exciting location.
The school is Located in Campbell, in the heart of Silicon Valley, in a suburb of San Jose named one of the safest big cities in America. The mild climate and proximity to San Francisco, several major universities, and the Pacific Ocean offer students the opportunity to enjoy many world class cultural and recreational activities.
The school is at the intersection of San Tomas Expressway and Hamilton Avenue and is easily accessible by car, with free parking on the premises. There is also a major bus stop in front of the school which connects to the train and light rail stations.

In addition, there is a computer laboratory for e-mail, internet, and computer-aided instruction. Students also have free wireless internet access.

Faculty
The English language instructors are highly qualified teaching professionals. Most hold masters degrees or certificates for teaching English as a Second Language (TESOL), and many speak one or more other languages.
