our new center

New Bridges sign - Mustafa's balconyWe signed a 4-year lease on a fantastic building for our New Bridges Language Learning Center in Zawita. It’s just up the hill from the bakery in the main market, has plenty of parking on the street, has a good-sized courtyard, and has a fabulous view of the tree-studded rocky hills.

Our signs are nailed to the wall, our business cards are making their way into the hands of potential students, and news about our Language Center is getting out!  We’ve made good progress on the paperwork for our business license with the Kurdish government but we still have a ways to go before we can submit the package for approval.

Our staff is living on the second floor. Should we need to in the future, we could expand to a total of 6 classrooms and 2 community rooms.
