Beginning as an education service provider for the local Austin Texas community in 1980, HOFT Institute -- formerly known as House of Tutors -- has developed into a multi-dimensional corporation that specializes in providing solutions for the international education market. HOFT Institute is authorized by the BCIS (Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services) to issue I-20 visas to international students, and has decades of experience in assisting foreign students who wish to come to the US to study. We are fully accredited by the Accrediting Council of Continuing Education & Training (ACCET). ACCET is listed by the U.S. Department of Education as a nationally recognized accrediting agency. The broad scope of our programs includes individual and group tutoring, subject review, standardized test preparation (including the PSAT, SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT, MCAT, TOEFL, MCLEX-RX/PN and CGFNS exams), mentoring programs, English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) courses, teacher training programs, corporate training courses, and program development services for government organizations, corporations, and schools. In addition, we provide educational services for business professionals, namely providing classes, programs, and seminars on presentation skills and cultural skills; and vocational courses for paralegal, nursing and business skills.
