This tutorial is for changing your Windows 8 (8.1) language pack from a non-English version to English.

Feel free to PM me if this doesn't work for you and I'll update as we go. I have also created a video showing how to make the changes, you can view the video here. This was done with the Japanese version of windows 8, but the same steps should apply regardless of what language version you have.

Start in your control panel, click here

As you can see, the 2nd language down is English. If the English is not showing up like it is here, click where the arrow is pointing to add a new language, scroll to English and add it.
