Dalian Future School

Here is the birthplace of Aston English School, established in 1996 and going strong into our 15th year. Dalian is home to 7 different locations as well as three kindergartens, the largest number of Aston Schools of any city in China. We also boast one of the highest numbers of total students, Chinese teachers, and Foreign teachers of any city throughout our system.

In Dalian, Aston English School is known locally as “Future School” and the commitment is the same as every location throughout the country – improving students’ speaking and listening skills in a fun and supportive environment. We have been the established market leader in our city for many years due to the quality of education we provide for our students and the experience our teaching staff brings.

All seven of our schools in Dalian are identical in terms of teaching method, support systems, teacher’s resources, classrooms, and overall design. There are however distinctions that can be made owing to the unique character each location has to offer.

Future 1: Located at one of the cities focal points just off Zhongshan Square, Future 1 is second only to Future 3 in Dalian in terms of number of students and teachers. The days and nights bustle in this commerical district with options abound for food, entertainment and shopping.

Future 2: Located in the south western area of the city, this school is a short walk from the beaches that make Dalian famous. It neighbors many universities, shops, restaurants and bars and make this area, Heishijiao, its own little axis of life in Dalian.

Future 3: The largest ESL school in Dalian, Future 3 is located about 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) to the west of People’s Square in what has become a nexus of commerce and entertainment in its own right. Future 3 is a major presence in this part of the city, with thousands of students and the largest teaching staff in Dalian.

Future 4: A little to the north of Future 3 lies the neighborhood of Jinsanjiao, the home of Future 4. This up-and-coming area is full of warm and friendly Dalianese who want to make new foreign friends as well as a diverse selection of food. Conveniently located near the airport, it acts as a great spring board for trips out of town and to the less explored parts of the city and province.

Future 5: Right on Jinzhou district’s pedestrian mall, Future 5 boasts great views of the surrounding mountains, close proximity to the beach, and delicious street food right outside the front doors. Future 5 is one of the smallest and perhaps most intimate of Dalian’s schools.

Future 6: Located in what may be the cleanest urban district in all of Liaoning Province, the newly remodeled Future 6 is a medium sized school in the Kaifaqu (Development Zone) district of northern Dalian. The light rail line zips passengers south into downtown in just 40 minutes, or north to the popular beaches outside of the city in less than half an hour.

Future 7: Just a short trip further away from Dalian’s city center, Pulandian hosts the seventh school in the Future English system. Here in Pulandian you can find a more relaxed lifestyle than what downtown can offer along with a less-Westernized atmosphere. Being the smallest of the Future schools, Pulandian offers new teachers a good environment to learn the ropes of teaching and old hands a low pressure environment to practice their craft.
