The UPTIME - Communication in English Schools came from the dream of one man: Sérgio de Souza Monteiro. With his experience abroad, he discovered that a language course does not need to last years and there are several learning techniques that allow fluency in a short time.
Thus, UPTIME revolutionized the Brazilian market. Since its founding in 2001 in the city of Belo Horizonte, the state capital of Minas Gerais, in Brazil, the company has become synonymous with innovation in teaching the English language. The results guaranteed by the cutting-edge methodology and also of the unique business model made the franchisor achieve high levels of satisfaction and growth.
UPTIME - Communication in English belongs to the UPTIME Group, a group of nine companies that command its operations. This means that the franchisor operates independently, not requiring suppliers or third parties to meet any internal demand. It is a bold and vertical organizational structure that provides significant results for the brand.
Bernardo Rezende, or just Bernardinho, the Brazilian volleyball coach, and André Valadão, a Christian music singer, are institutional partners of UPTIME and worthily represent the important values held by the company.
UPTIME collects compliments from students and professionals all over the country, so it is recognized as the most acclaimed brand in Brazil by the website ElogieAki since 2015.
For over a decade, UPTIME has won the most important titles of the Brazilian franchising market every year. Among them is the Best Franchise in Brazil.
