When the Uceda family emigrated from Peru, they recognized the importance of English language learning among the Latino community and other immigrant populations. With this premise in mind, and guided by the need to meet this educational need, Carlos and Charo Uceda co-founded the Uceda Institute together with Juan J. Uceda and Doris Uceda, serving as its Chief Academic Director. Uceda English Institute/Uceda School comprises a chain of English as a Second Language (ESL) schools that are Accredited.
At present, UCEDA English Institute/ School has more than 25 locations, under different members-of-the-family ownership and administrations, throughout the United States, serving millions of students from all over the world.
The Uceda's educational legacy started with its first school in Paterson, NJ. Over time they settled in the states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Virginia (Washington DC Metro).
UCEDA's currently has schools on the North Coast of the United States with locations in Red Bank, Passaic, Paterson, Perth Amboy, Danbury, Norwalk, Morristown, Freehold, New Brunswick, Lakewood, Bridgeport, Falls Church, Dover, Port Chester, and Stamford. Their Stamford institute is located at 65 Broas St on the 2nd Floor.
