Welcome to WECI English Language Institute Home Page

WECI English Language Institute is a professional language institute, providing quality English Language tuition from qualified and experienced native speaker instructors. Established in 2002, WECI has branches in Hua Hin and Prachuab Khiri khan, offering a wide variety of courses from Young Learner and General English through to Business English and specialist Hotel classes. Class levels cover all abilities from Beginner to Advanced with our students varying in age and background, from the very Young Learner to the Corporate Manager. WECI English Language Institute's mission is to bring to the community a large range of quality language courses at a realistic price, providing opportunities for those who want to learn, and a comfortable, affordable, well resourced environment in which to do so.


WECI Hua Hin has become widely respected in the area and has been asked to manage a number of English language programs at local schools. Its instructors have a reputation for being experts in their field, largely due to WECI English Language Institute's recruitment policy, requiring a TEFL certification and student centered teaching techniques. Weci's insistence on small class sizes also enables students to actively participate in class, thereby enabling them to develop their pronunciation and speaking skill to the full.
