Hello, teachers.
When I googled "English speaking school", I got so many hits.
Is it a common word?
Does it mean an English conversation school?

Thank you in advance!

I would think so; I am not taking time to google the phrase, however.

Hello, Mister Micawber.
Thank you for your answer!!

>I am not taking time to google the phrase, however.

Do you mean you yourself don't use or haven't heard the phrase?
I have checked some of the sites where the phrase is used, and have found it seems to mean a school which offers education in English, not a school for people who are not fluent speakers of English and want to improve their English.

I should have done it before asking.(^^;;

Regards,
Junkomama
