About Us

Way back in 1988 in the hot month of May at five minutes' walking distance from the Konnagar Railway Station at 75/A/37 H.C.Banerjee Lane, Konnagar Institute for Spoken English was established with only five boys and two girls as students. It was initially intended that the institute would simply cater to the needs of the local youngsters who were keenly interested in obtaining a working knowledge of Spoken English. However, within a span of only one and a half years the institute found itself imparting lessons in Spoken English to about forty students who used to come from different localities-------near & far.

Today Konnagar Institute prides itself in stating that it has been instrumental in getting many a student established in various walks of life. Needless to say that Konnagar Institute for Spoken English does not owe its success to a particular single individual who claims to be the helmsman of the institute. The achievement of the institute can safely be ascribed to all its devoted students who on one hand learn unhesitatingly from their senior classmates & on the other hand painstakingly train their juniors------in observance of the institute's traditional culture-----"Your Senior is your first teacher".

In the untiring endeavor to spread the English education far & wide; Konnagar Institute for Spoken English effusively welcomes everyone who intends to master the art of speaking English. For admission to Konnagar Institute 'Money' is secondary while 'Devotion to English' is primary. So amigos, no more shilly-shally learn English willy-nilly.
