Overview

Indonesia is one of the most beautiful, fascinating and culturally absorbing nations in the world. As the capital city, Jakarta is a gateway to the natural and human treasures found throughout the islands. Jakarta is a busy metropolis, yet it is only a 60-90 minute boat ride to the Thousand Islands; a tranquil weekend getaway that’s a great place for diving and snorkeling with its vibrant coral reefs, or just to relax and sunbathe on the beaches.

Jakarta itself has a lot to offer as well with all kind of restaurants where you can try cuisine from not just Indonesia but all over the world. The night life offers something for everyone, there’s live music, clubs and some themed bars too. There are numerous sporting facilities ranging from fitness clubs to paint ball! As well as local art exhibitions and some local theatre, Jakarta hosts the International Java Jazz festival each year.

EF English First is a world renowned language institution using its own teaching books and materials specifically developed for Asian students offering a complete teaching package for the teacher to work from. The schools in our group are located in central Jakarta, the outskirts of Jakarta and the neighboring city of Bogor. Each area is unique and has varying features that our teachers enjoy living and working in. From the quieter green suburban environment to the faster pace of convenience in the more urban areas, between the seven schools there is an attraction for every professional teacher.
All of the schools are equipped with the latest in teaching aids, materials and educational multi-media technology. For more details regarding our schools, please visit: www.efjakarta.com

If you prefer to work in suburb,we also have branch in Bogor.Bogor is about 60 km south of Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia and you will need only one hour to get to Jakarta as you can take a scenic toll road. It was an important hill station during Dutch times, from the 17th century. Today Bogor has almost become a suburb of Jakarta, but is a good base for nearby mountain walks. Its altitude is only 290m, but it is appreciably cooler than Jakarta. The school location is also close to south beach of west java, Palabuhan Ratu, popular beach for surfer.It is about 2,5 hours away. Some teachers have motor bikes where they can get there almost every weekend and the Puncak tea plantation is about 45 minutes ride.
