Texas Intensive English Program Reviews

Studied here way, way back in Fall of 1983. Used to be called Dexter House back then.

Teachers at TIEP are very kind and friendly. After learning English at TIEP, I will do internship program so i have to make my resume and prepare job interview. When i asked them about the resume and job interview, they helped me kindly. Thanks for their help, I prepared my interview well.
I had difficulty communicating in English when i arrived in Austin, but now i feel that my ability has being improved because of TIEP education. That s so amazing.
There are a lot of events at TIEP. Recently, I enjoyed Halloween party, Mixed monday and Potluck party etc. I will enjoy Christmas Tree Decoration events today, so if you join TIEP events, you can make friends and enjoy events.

This is the most awful school in Austin!!! They only care about money!!! I am going back to my country now,so I am not scared of their thread.they even ask money for the online homework and textbook before ask you !!the teachers are not nice at all!! As a brand new people in USA without knowing any culture or language,I really suffer a lot.I am glad later I transfer to another school... I don't need to suffer that much unfair treatment! That is a lot of good schools in Austin,hopefully you don't need to go there. That is the darkest days in my life there.
I don't know that lady call Sarah she's still there or not,she almost killed me by giving me so much depression!soooo mean lady,I will never forget her.
Anyway,those are my experiences.hopefully is helpful for you to choose a good school.

Hi, I have studied at TIEP for three months and during this period I could improve my English skills more quickly and fluently. I think the classes of TIEP are so systematic that we can learn English efficiently at each level. Especially my teachers, Heidi and Steven, were so competent and friendly that they always do their best to teach us. I really enjoyed my class and I couldn t forget this good memory which I experienced at TIEP. Thank you!

I studied English at TIEP last summer.
Teachers were very kind for us!
I enjoyed the student life of TIEP!
Thank you my teachers Sarah and Jackie !
I never forget this experience!

I'm South of Korea. I've studied English in TIEP in this semester. When I come Austin at first, I couldn't speak anything, but teachers and friends help me a lot whenever I have problems in the class, so now I am a talkative person! all of teachers are very kind, and they want to give students help. In addition, there are many programs in TIEP. one of them is the conversation meeting, which is TIEP students and UT students have a conversation once a week. I've participated in the meeting and we have talked in English!! I can't forget these time in TEIP

It is a nice school of English. The program is excepcionally good, as the teachers have a broad experience.

Facilities are rather old, and classrooms, very small. But other than that, I wouldn't say there is a single inconvenience.

Staff is great and cheerful!

My experience in TIEP is excellent. I highly recommend you this school as the best way to learn English.
This is an amazing school in Austin Texas.
The teachers are highly efficient and patient teaching, TIEP has a lot of activities to help you maximize your experience into learning English.
I've had a great time during this process and learned a lot.

It good place to learn english but its very expensive. 8 week classes are over 3K which is crazy because you will only be taking two classes. So over $1500 for the class. With that money you can study English at UT. The teachers in there treat you like a second class citizen just because you are a "foreigner". The staff is very rude and unhelpful. I remember having an issue with my books and I didnt get any help untill I spoke to the director or " the princple". And even though you are probably over 18 or older they will still treat you like a highschool kid. Overall, I did not enjoy my time in there and quickly switched to ACC after one semester. They made the switch way harder than it is just so maybe you change your mind and continue giving them your hard earned money.
