The Objective
The rebrand of English South Africa (ESA) aimed to redefine the visual and strategic identity of the country’s leading English language association.
The goal was to capture the vibrant spirit, cultural depth, and global relevance of South Africa’s English language travel industry while modernizing its image to inspire a new generation of learners and partners.
ESA needed a brand that could celebrate its roots, reflect its diversity, and communicate its forward-looking mission in a clear, dynamic, and inspiring way.
The Project
English South Africa is the national association of quality English language centres across the country. It plays a vital role in promoting South Africa as a destination for English language education, ensuring that its members uphold high standards of professionalism, quality, and student experience.
Born from the English Language Travel Association of South Africa (ELTASA), ESA evolved as a sub-sector of the South African Youth and Travel Confederation (SAYTC), an organization representing the broader youth travel and education ecosystem.
This evolution positioned ESA as both a guardian of quality and a driver of innovation in a rapidly growing industry.
The new identity needed to embody the country’s dynamic spirit, blending humor, warmth, and adventure with credibility and professionalism.
It was designed to resonate with students, educators, and international partners, reflecting the idea of embarking on a new journey, discovering new destinations, and living a new adventure, all through language.
