Our new English Outdoors concept is specifically designed to immerse students in NYC life and culture, giving students the unique opportunity to practice their English in authentic NYC settings.
English Outdoors means ‘outside of the traditional classroom’ but not necessarily outside in a park: our morning English sessions take place in both indoor and outdoor locations all over the city. Instead of being in the same place every day, students will meet in a new iconic and authentic place every day.
This immersive experience includes 3 class excursions (Discovery Days) per week to explore the city and build English fluency through real-life situations and contexts.

Being immersed in the life and culture of NYC adds a unique element to the experience, as students are able to truly experience NYC life and culture first-hand in authentic settings.

Our homestays are located in Brooklyn, on average 30 minutes by subway to Brooklyn Heights and 35-40 minutes by subway to Lower Manhattan.
We alternate between locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan for our sessions so that students don’t always have to travel to Manhattan every morning, and also because there are plenty of great locations to explore in Brooklyn!
