Modern Language Center – Over Five Decades of Excellence in Language Education

For more than 55 years, the Modern Language Center, located in Jabal Al-Luweibdeh, has operated under the direct supervision of the Ministry of Education. It stands as one of the first educational institutions in Jordan to specialize in teaching foreign languages, including English, German, Japanese, Russian, and other living languages.

Over the years, there has been a growing demand for Arabic language instruction for non-native speakers, making the Center a key destination for international students eager to learn Arabic and immerse themselves in local culture.

To enrich the learning experience, the Center offers a variety of cultural and recreational extracurricular activities, providing students with deeper exposure to Arab culture and society. Additionally, a fully equipped student residence was established on-site, accommodating up to 60 students and offering a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment that enhances their overall experience.

The Center is also an officially accredited testing venue for a wide range of international proficiency exams, including:
TOEFL, IELTS, OSD, JLPT, ONSET, TOLES, GRE, GMAT, and JLCT, reflecting its high credibility and distinguished position as a leading educational institution.

For more than five decades, the Modern Language Center has maintained a family-like atmosphere while continuing to play an essential role in training thousands of learners from diverse backgrounds. These include business professionals, homemakers, government employees, members of non-profit organizations, volunteers, and school students from across Jordan, neighboring countries, as well as from many European and Asian nations.

The warm, welcoming environment and strong relationships between staff and students have been vital to the Center’s continued success and steady growth. In recognition of its outstanding educational efforts, the Center was honored with a Royal Medal by the late King Hussein Bin Talal, may his soul rest in peace, and was awarded a lifetime license by the Jordanian Ministry of Education—an acknowledgment of its excellence and trusted programs.

Choose the Modern Language Center—where learning meets excellence, and language meets culture.

Overview of the Establishment of the MLC

The Modern Language Center was established more than 55 years ago in the heart of Jabal Al-Lweibdeh, Amman, by Mr. Yousef Awad, a visionary born in a small village on the outskirts of Jerusalem in 1936.

With limited financial resources but abundant faith and determination, Mr. Awad traveled to the United States, where he earned both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Economics and Business Administration. Upon returning to his homeland, he saw the need for a cultural and educational hub that would promote Arabic and foreign languages and serve the community with excellence.

Since its founding, the center has preserved a warm, family-like atmosphere and played a leading role in empowering thousands of students with the tools to learn and master multiple world languages through trusted and proven language programs.

Today, the Modern Language Center serves a wide and diverse community of learners, including:
👨‍💼 Business professionals
🏡 Homemakers
🏢 Government and NGO employees
🎓 School and university students
🌍 International volunteers from Jordan, neighboring countries, and across Europe and Asia

Our strong focus on personalized student relationships, quality instruction, and continuous development has led to countless success stories. The center was proudly awarded the Medal of Education and Teaching by the late His Majesty King Hussein bin Talal, and it continues to operate under a lifetime license granted by the Jordanian Ministry of Education.
