Edward Rocha is the founder and President of Rola Corporation and director of Rola Languages. He was raised bilingual in rural Texas. Ed is fluent in English and Spanish and a student of French, Portuguese, and Mandarin with nearly 20 years of language teaching experience. After privately tutoring Spanish for many years and living abroad in Argentina and Spain, he fell in love with the idea of a language school, and as an avid entrepreneur and language and communications specialist, Ed was determined to build such a community in Boston. He formalized his teaching method and thus, Rola Languages was born in 2008. Rola Languages is now a part of Rola Corporation, an international education company focused on creating a global brand with 3 education companies, through curriculum development, consulting, and partnerships. Rola promotes its system called the Rola Method, and applies it to course development and teaching in areas of language, communications, and professional development.
