Open English

Overview

Open English is an online English language school founded in 2006 in Caracas, Venezuela. It serves primarily Spanish-speaking countries and has expanded globally with offices in Istanbul and Bangalore. The company has raised over $130 million in venture capital and is valued at hundreds of millions.

The platform provides 24/7 live English language classes taught by native speakers, including group courses for adults, children’s programs (Open English Junior), and corporate training (Open English Business). Digital skills development is available via the Next U platform, and Open Mundo extends language learning to multiple languages. Growth through acquisitions such as English Ninjas (Turkey) and Enguru (India) supports a diverse, international user base.
