16 Recommended ESL Schools In Cebu Philippines For Students And Teachers 2022

There are many on-site ESL schools in Cebu (Cebu city and other areas within the Cebu region). These language schools are all legitimate or have business permits with many years of experience in the industry.

These 16 ESL academies are owned and managed by foreign nationals:  mainly Koreans and Japanese. Most of the Korean students (if not all) are recruited by Philja Tour company—the most reputable travel agency that caters to Koreans and Japanese. (https://www.philja.com/)
Since the pandemic is nearly over and the Philippines is now accepting foreigners back in the country, then it's certain that many non-English-speaking students are busy planning their trips abroad—mainly with the aim of studying English.
While a lot of schools are permanently closed, there are still many of them that exist and even started to reopen. In fact, I personally visited some of these academies, so I saw the current situation of these schools. These ESL companies are quite well-known in Cebu and to foreign students alike. 

In no particular order, here are the ESL schools you might want to consider enrolling (if you're a student) or teaching (if you're a teacher):
