History

Established in 1995.

On 1995 WiseUp opened the door of its very first School in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil using a very unique approach, Conversational Classes. Our founder understood most of the people really need to speak English fast, instead of keeping the students teaching repetitive and boring grammar rules. This and hard work was the key to success. In a matter of 5 years there were already 25 schools open in Brazil. In 2001 started the real growth of the school opening more than 100 schools and in 2005 WiseUp went International opening schools in Argentina, then Colombia, USA, China, Mexico and many more countries to come. In 2013 the Founder sold Ometz Group Corporation to Abril Group which is a top ten Educational Group worldwide. WiseUp is a global English Language Schools Network.

«With the $ 10,000 from the bank, and a 12% interest/​month, I started my company. It ended up becoming a great success.»

18 years later, Wise Up now has over 600 schools operating in seven countries, including: Brazil, Argentina, Columbia, China, Mexico and the United States.
