The Language School for Mastering your English.

An EAQUALS accredited English language centre recognized for its excellence in language education.
Courses Our Team

The Bridge

Located in Bratislava, we are a specialist English language training centre providing high quality, professional English language courses for students with a variety of needs and goals.

We are active members of national and international professional organisations and regard such cooperation, in tandem with a process of continual quality improvement, as the key driver behind our high-quality educational institution.  Having become the first language centre in Slovakia to become accredited by EAQUALS in 2020, we are now  internationally recognised for our excellence in language education.

 The centre was established in 2009 and Klaudia, our founder and CEO, was also a founding member of both the Slovak Chamber of English Language Teachers and the Slovak Association of Language Schools. She is currently chairwoman of the former and was chairwoman of the latter from 2011 to 2016.

 Klaudia is passionate about teacher training and has established and runs professional development projects such as the Eltforum.sk and the Bridge Re-boot Camp for teachers. Her passion and professional interest are in effective learning strategies, which she understands is a broad and complex topic. Klaudia believes that ultimately there is no one ‘correct’ teaching or learning method; in fact, it is an eclectic and holistic approach that delivers the most effective teaching and learning outcomes.
