School

Xi’an Aston One:

Xi’an Aston One opened during the winter of 2001, starting with less than 100 students and growing to a thriving enrollment of now over 3500, making it the largest school in the Aston system and one of the largest in China. It is located on Dong Da Jie (East Street), the main shopping street of the city, within the beautiful and ancient city walls and about 5 minutes walk from the central Bell Tower.

We are a highly professional and modern educational facility. Our success in becoming the premier English training school of the province is owed to a very dedicated and hard-working staff, many of whom have been with us since the beginning. We are leading the way, not only in Aston’s development throughout Western China, but in Xi’an’s expectations of what English education should be about. We employ a highly trained full-time Chinese teaching staff and have significant resources available to all of our teachers for planning and administering lessons.

All our accommodation is within a stones throw of the school, i.e. you can stroll to work everyday with no need to commute (the walk only taking 5-10 minutes).

Xi’an Aston One recently moved locations and is now decorated with all of the new Aston designs. The “new” Xi’an Aston One is less then a block away from the old location. It houses twenty-two classrooms, one giant staff lounge, a grand lobby as a waiting area, multiple management and administrative offices, two student interviewing rooms, and an accounting office. And, of course the approximately 3500 students that perhaps make us the liveliest English school in China.

Xi’an Aston Two:

Xi’an Aston Two is situated in the south part of the city in an area known as Xiao Zhai. We are about five minutes walk to the west of Da Yan Ta on Chang An Zhong Lu, on the fifth floor of a modern office block. We share the same building as Xi'an's biggest bookstore which has the largest selection of English books in the province. It takes you away from the maddening up-tempo area of East Street and allows you to retreat to the more cultural side of this great city surrounded by Chinese art and historical architecture. The area around Aston Two is the ideal place to step back in time and see the city the way it used to be seen. The main university district is nearby making this the preferred location for our teachers interested in formally studying Chinese language or art.

Xi’an Aston Two opened its doors in January of 2005 due to our original location not being able to handle the influx of new students. We renovated the entire fifth floor of a modern office building to create the design we were happy with. Our location has all of the same comforts and amenities for teachers as Aston One just up the road.

Xi'an Aston Three:

Xi'an Aston Three is the newest addition to the Xi'an schools and is found about 10 minutes by bus outside of East Street's East gate on Jin Hua Lu. It is in a much quieter part of town but has been fast growing. The apartments are all within walking distance of the school, which is found on the sixth floor of an office block. There are many large and interesting discount markets as well as many classic Chinese jade, tea and art markets.

The school itself has been furbished with all the latest bits and pieces, with thick easy to clean and childproof glass whiteboards and child sized whiteboards accompanying the regular whiteboards for younger learners to reach easier when involved in classroom activities. Aston Three also has a large media hall for presentations.
