Welcome to the English Language Institute (ELI) website. I am Valentina Inozemtseva,
the Director of ELI since 1999. I was an ESL instructor at ELI for seven years
before I became the Director. As part of my teaching and recruiting job and
my personal interest in traveling, I have visited over 60 countries and territories,
met with my former students in their own countries and got acquainted with
their culture. This is why I love working with international students and helping
them achieve their goals.
