The problem is that the link does not always change the language package. It's a problem of Microsoft developers. If you want to get Visual Studio in english, please check the package language you are installing when you open the .exe file. Check that it says "ENU".

This is the correct link to Visual Studio 2015:

Sometime you switch language but it download the same file, and just when you open it, you see the same language being installed, and you are thinking that you selected the corrected language, and you did, but microsoft did you gave you the right file, and only when you see in the installation title, you can know that you are installing the correct language.
