Company Description

The American Language Center (ALC) of Mohammedia has been serving its community since 1989. Mohammedia isn't well known outside of Morocco, which means its charming beaches and downtown park remains unspoiled by tourism. Since both are close to each other, you can spend a lovely day wandering through the city, enjoying the flowers in the park, and catching rays on the sand or while surfing the waves.

Although it is not a large city itself, it is modern a one, with many international and diverse culinary restaurants to try out. It is also only a short 30 minute train ride to the country's administrative capital, Rabat, and an even shorter 20 minute train ride to the country's financial hub, Casablanca.

ALC Mohammedia has beautiful facilities which include 21 classrooms themed by US cities and national parks, a hockey/basketball court, an open, turfed backyard area used for sports and events, a large outdoor stage, a playground and a large cafeteria and indoor event room. We've adopted project-based learning as a pedagogical foundation of our curriculum and put a strong emphasis on innovation and shaping education to our ideals. We have a collaborative team that supports each other with help, questions, challenges and solutions. We believe that our center is only as strong as our staff community and therefore spend great efforts organizing team building activities such as staff karaoke competitions, bowling and ice skating days, hiking day trips, beach days, sports days, and more!
