About Us

Brilla Institutt was founded in 2011 by Juliana, a graduate in language studies and Spanish literature, with a teaching career that began in 2002. What started as a small dream has grown into an institution led by a team of three dedicated teachers, a financial advisor, and more than 15 inspiring teachers.

At Brilla, every employee is a teacher, and we value our students’ journeys as much as their progress. We focus on understanding their goals, backgrounds, and motivations—because that’s what makes Brilla a community.

At Brilla, we believe that learning never stops—both for teachers and students, which has been the driving force behind our journey from just four students to a thriving community of over 300.

Our mission is to provide high-quality language education with a strong focus on real-world communication skills. We believe in personalized learning, offering one-on-one sessions and small groups (around 8 students) to ensure every student gets the attention and support they need to succeed. We’re dedicated to creating a positive, inclusive environment where languages go beyond words, and cultures, ideas, and experiences are shared and celebrated.
