WELCOME TO MPU-BELL

The MPU-Bell Centre of English is a joint project between Macao Polytechnic University (MPU) and Bell Education Trust based in Cambridge, England (a leading UK centre of excellence for English language teaching and learning for nearly 70 years). MPU-Bell was formerly known as ‘MPI-Bell’.

MPU-Bell was established in October 2003 to provide the highest quality English language teaching and teacher training for local students and teachers, as well as for the wider region. This includes English as a second or foreign language (ESL/EFL); academic English for school and university students, postgrads and academics; English for specific purposes (ESP) for business and professional communication; and preparation for high-stakes international exams, such as IELTS and SAT. Our team of highly qualified and experienced teachers and trainers, both native English speakers and bilingual English/Chinese, ensure that MPU-Bell consistently innovates and develops high quality teaching and training courses which meet the needs of every group and individual.

For English language learning, we actively use up-to-date classroom pedagogy and learning materials and tasks, making use of the latest educational technology in our first-class classrooms or at your school, company or other institution. Over the last 20 years we have run many hundreds of courses for tens of thousands of students: school and university students in Macau and mainland China; government and business employees; and members of the public needing to prepare for exams, look for jobs or promotions, or simply learn English for pleasure. We take pride in providing student-centred classroom learning so all learners can benefit as much as they can in lessons which are engaging, stimulating and fun, leading to successful learning outcomes. We run courses for individuals (one-to-one), small groups and large groups, and can provide online courses on demand.

For English teaching, we have teacher trainers with decades of experience working with novice and experienced teachers of English in Primary and Secondary schools, and in universities and colleges. Our focus is on teacher professional development – this means providing courses that not only introduce new methods and resources, but which also help teachers apply new approaches and activities in their actual classrooms to meet the real challenges they and their students face. We run a regular series of short courses for teachers in Macau in collaboration with the DSEDJ (Macau’s Education and Youth Development Bureau). We make and deliver tailor-made courses for schools. We have worked extensively with teachers from across China, either in Macau or at their home institution.

The MPU-Bell Centre is an IELTS test centre, in partnership with the British Council Hong Kong since 2004. We are a full-service IELTS venue: IELTS on computer and IELTS on paper; video speaking tests and in-person (face-to-face) speaking tests. We are a test centre for SAT and ACT, with computer-based tests in our purpose-built computer testing facility, and we can provide large-scale test days on the MPU main campus (for 600 or more candidates at one time).

We extend a warm welcome to all students, teachers, institutions and organisations. We are ready to help you achieve your learning or teaching goals.
