Campus

GLC Global Language Cebu (former IDEA CEBU), which started as a language school with 80 students in 2011, has undergone mergers, a two-campus system, closures due to COVID-19, and reopened in November 2022. We moved campus, changed the name from IDEA to GLC, and have grown into a relatively large language school with over 400 students. GLC is the best cost performance school where you can realize “STUDY & ENJOY” with school-sponsored activities held every week. In addition, the campus has amazing facilities such as a swimming pool, fitness gym, game room and more. GLC's response to the COVID-19 pandemic by developing an online study abroad platform demonstrates adaptability and a commitment to providing educational opportunities even in challenging circumstances. Offering one-on-one sessions, group studies, and international exchange experiences online broadens the accessibility of education and provides flexibility for students with different preferences.
