About us

English 1 Swara Group

With over 30 years of experience, English 1 (formerly EF English First) is a global leader in education, inspiring young minds through language learning and cultural experiences. Our premium education brand is not only dedicated to teaching English, but also creating a safe and supportive environment where students feel valued and encouraged to realize their potential. We believe that the journey of learning English is more than just acquiring linguistic skills. It's about opening doors to new cultures, broadening horizons, and building connections that span continents. It’s more than just a language. It’s the experience of a lifetime.

English 1 SWARA Group opened its first franchise center in Pluit, North Jakarta in 1997 and from there we have never looked back. 27 years later, English 1 Swara continues to be the largest group in the Greater Jakarta region, having 20 Centers in the city and its surrounding area. We currently have 9 Centers in the capital city of Jakarta, 6 in the thriving suburb of Tangerang, and 5 in the satellite city of Bogor and Depok. With a dynamic and expanding team, we established our own Head Office in Tangerang area to help support our English 1 Centers in continuing to grow as the leading provider of English language education in Indonesia.
