Discover the ELC Story
The UCT English Language Centre is part of the University of Cape Town — one of the leading universities in the world, and the highest ranked in Africa. Located on UCT’s historic Hiddingh Campus in the heart of Cape Town, we bring together academic excellence and the energy of a global learning environment.
ELC was established in 2015 to bring the academic strength of UCT into the world of English language teaching — combining university-level standards with a practical, student-centred approach. Our goal has always been to offer a learning experience that’s globally relevant, locally grounded, and responsive to the needs of a diverse international community.
We’re proud of our connection to UCT, but also of the distinct identity we’ve built — one that reflects the city we live in, the students we teach, and the values we share.
