Jonas grew up in Denmark and at fifteen, moved to France because of his father’s work. Upon his arrival, he was unable to speak a word of French. Remarkably, after three years he had not only learnt the language, but achieved his High School diploma with Honors. After graduating from university with a Masters in International Relations and then working for the Danish Embassy, he decided to follow his passions and move into the language training industry.

After almost ten years of work with one of France’s main training providers and familiarizing himself with the financial aspects of professional training, Jonas joined Stylianos Antalis to develop the YES project.

‘The American Library in Paris’ was founded by the American Library Association in 1920. Its literary selection and motto is one of hope: ‘After the darkness of war, the light of books’.

The library endured the difficult years of The Depression and France’s WWII Occupation and prospered throughout the Postwar Era as the US experienced a changing role within the world. The library’s success was driven by the new wave of American and International writers that immigrated to Paris, including: James Jones, Mary McCarthy, Richard Wright, and Samuel Beckett.

The American Library is located at 10 Rue du Général Carrou in the 7^th Arrondissement of Paris. With its 100 000 books, 450 periodicals, 400 adult and children’s videos, plus CDs and audio cassettes, the ‘American Library in Paris’ remains the largest English-language lending library on the European continent.

YES offers free access to the pedagogical and administrative data necessary to create key performance indicators. These indicators are presented in the form of dashlets showing information such as: population by level, statistics by post and gender, attendance of Learners (monitored in actual time), progress reports and YES Trainers’ reports.

Our HR platform is also very beneficial as it facilitates the administration of the training: providing attendance certificates, tuition notes, contract history, budget tracking and end-of-training certificates.

Stylianos Antalis, 39, has worked in the area of English language professional training for the past fifteen years and has lived in three different countries, learning three different languages before founding YES – Your English Solution. His experience has made him choose the right people to make it happen,  surrounding himself with a young highly- motivated and talented team.

In the few short years after its creation, YES was ranked among the 100 Up-and-coming French Companies of the Year in 2009 and was awarded 1st place in the IT Innovation Award in the state of Hamburg in 2010.
