EN Bourguiba Institute of Modern Languages
The idea of creating an Institute of Modern Languages was born in 1958, in the form of evening English courses, which gave rise to the original name “Bourguiba School.” These courses were organized by the American Cultural Center in what is now the Tunisia Palace, and continued until 1960.
Starting in 1960, a gradual Tunisification of the Bourguiba School took place, both in terms of funding, as well as management and academic programs.
