My English School

My English School (MyES) is a provider of English language courses for individual and corporate clients, operating primarily in Europe through a network of owned and franchised learning centers. Founded in Florence, Italy, in 2011 by CEO Luigi Sguerri, the company expanded from a single location to over 70 centers across Italy, Spain, and France. In June 2025, private equity firm Oltre Impact acquired a 60% stake in the group to support its continued growth.

The company's business model combines in-person and online instruction, offering personalized study plans and flexible scheduling. MyES utilizes its proprietary "MySmart English" method, which focuses on a communicative approach with conversation in small groups based on real-life scenarios to promote natural language acquisition. This method is supported by an e-learning platform with digital books and supplemental activities. Clients include private students (adults and teens), professionals, and corporate customers seeking to enhance employee language skills. Revenue is generated through course fees, with franchising serving as a key pillar of its expansion strategy.
