School description

Our teachers bring to our school not only their professional experience in the classroom but also their love of the English language.

As some teachers excel when teaching 1-to-1 and others when they are in a small-group class setting, we allow teachers to teach where they feel more comfortable and can, therefore, teach students more effectively.

Similarly, we value the individual skills of our teachers and encourage them to incorporate them into their lessons. Therefore, our best grammar teachers teach grammar, our best writing teachers teach writing and so on.

All of the teachers have a minimum of 2 years of teaching experience, a bachelor’s degree, and TEFL or TESOL certification.

School location

The school by the sea Situated less than 20 minutes from Mactan International Airport, Genius English Academy is located in a tropical island resort within walking distance of restaurants, restobars, coffee shops, supermarkets, foreign exchange, and spas. Linked to Cebu island by two bridges (or a short ferry trip if you are feeling adventurous!) you are close to the cultural centre of the Philippines. Known as the Queen of the South, Cebu has many reminders of its past and its links to Spain. A visit to some of the historical sites like Fort San Pedro, Santo Niño Church, and Magellan’s Cross is a must for culture vultures.
