Jeremy Brown starts his new job as the teacher of English as a Foreign Language class, and meets his students for the first time. A diverse group of ten foreign adult students in London, hailing from nine different countries in Europe and Asia. The Europeans consist of two au pairs, the young, flirtatious and beautiful Danielle (from France) and prim and proper Anna (from West Germany); two young single men, Giovanni (from Italy) and Max (from Greece); and a laid-back middle-aged bartender, Juan (from Spain), who speaks no English. The Asians consist of Su-Li, a revolutionary-minded secretary from the Chinese Embassy, who is a staunch follower of Chairman Mao's teachings; Taro, a Japanese businessman, as well as three students from South Asia: Ranjeet, a devout Punjabi Sikh; Ali, an unemployed Pakistani Muslim; and Jamila, an Urdu-speaking housewife who cannot speak any English. The school principal, Miss Courtney, nearly dismisses Mr Brown immediately as she had requested a female teacher, but she gives in and he is allowed to stay on a trial basis.
