Discovery Learning Center (DLC) was established in 1998 by a team of educators with more than 15 years of teaching and administrative experience. The school initially offered educational programs to prepare students for the demands of the contemporary job market.

From the beginning, it was clear that a large number of students needed to improve both their spoken and written, English-language skills. To meet this need, DLC made the transition away from being a preparatory school to become an institute for the teaching and learning of English as a Second Language.

DLC is now located in a newly-renovated, spacious, and well-lit facility in palisades Park, New Jersey, offering a comprehensive program of communicative, English-language courses at beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels to serve the needs of English language learners.
