Our Methodology

You Don’t Just Study English — You Learn How to Use It

Our method combines clear explanations with constant practice. You learn how the language works and then apply what you learn through exercises, conversations, and real-life situations.

A Class Designed for Participation

Less Time Listening to Explanations. More Time Using English.

The teacher introduces the topic, explains its structure, and answers the questions you need. Then, students practice with guidance until they develop greater confidence and fluency.

  • Organized explanations that are easy to follow.
  • Exercises designed to apply each topic.
  • Frequent participation throughout the class.
  • Teacher corrections and guidance.
20%
Explanation The teacher presents the structure, vocabulary, and pronunciation.

Our History

A Family Legacy Since 1967

Three generations dedicated to teaching English through a proprietary, structured method that continues to evolve.

James D. Ahearn and María Guadalupe de Icaza with their ten children at their home in Cuernavaca, Mexico
The Ahearn family at their home in Cuernavaca, Mexico. James D. Ahearn and María Guadalupe de Icaza with their ten children. Each of their children became a character in the original Lang-Lab books.

From One Family to Generations of Students

Lang-Lab began in Acapulco, Mexico, when James D. Ahearn started teaching English to the friends of his wife, María Guadalupe de Icaza.

After identifying the challenges Spanish speakers faced when learning English, James developed his own books, exercises, and recordings using his American accent. He also introduced an audio laboratory so students could listen, repeat, and practice individually.

His books were inspired by his own family life. James and María had ten children, and each of them was incorporated as a character into Lang-Lab's lessons and conversations.

After Lang-Lab Acapulco, Lang-Lab Cuernavaca was opened. The family later continued the legacy through Lang-Lab Tijuana, Lang-Lab San Diego, and Lang-Lab Texas.

Today, the original method and books are still used, updated with modern vocabulary, current situations, video exercises, and digital tools.

How Do I Know Which English Level Is Right for Me?

What Is the Lang-Lab Teaching Method?

Our method is based on approximately 80% practice and 20% explanation. Most of your class time is spent listening, speaking, reading, and writing in English.

Explanations help you understand how the language works, while practice helps you use what you learn to communicate your own ideas.

Do You Guarantee That I Will Learn English?

Learning a language requires attending class, participating, practicing, and studying. For this reason, we cannot guarantee each student's individual results.

What we do guarantee is the quality of our teaching, our method, and the commitment of our teachers. Each student's progress also depends on attendance, participation, practice, and study.

Class sizes are limited. Grammar courses have a maximum capacity of 20 students, while conversation courses have a maximum capacity of 10 students.

  • Two people: $25 per person, per hour.
  • Three people: $20 per person, per hour.
  • Four or more people: $16 per person, per hour.

Private lessons must be paid at least 24 hours in advance and cannot be canceled. Lessons paid for on the same day have an additional charge of $2 per hour.

For lessons at your location, half of the travel time from the school to the lesson location and back is charged. A minimum of two hours per session is required.

If you are not enrolled in a course, a $50 registration fee is required for each level.

Can I Join an English Course After It Has Already Started?

Yes. You can join a course that has already started as long as space is still available.

When you enroll, you must pay the full monthly payment. You will receive credit toward private lessons equivalent to the value of the class days that have already passed.
