Summer Junior Program (13-17 years old) with Student Residence

I didn’t need facilities or housing since I stayed at my daughter’s who’s been living in Brooklyn. Nor did I really needed different locations since I’m familiar with NYC thanks to my long stays over the years. For the rest of it, I wanted to perfectionate my spoken English and I made the best of what is possible to achieve in two weeks. Improving my fluency, learning idioms, the way natives speak was useful and fun. I liked everything except the weather :))

I was in the advanced group, and in one week I learned a few things, it was pretty good to have classes outdoors and not to be in a classroom. We were a group of seven teenagers and that was good, because the teacher could help us all. The afternoons were great, because we were on our own, we could do whatever we wanted (with limits of course), and the activities were the best to do! We discovered so much!
I wasn’t in a host family, I was at a friend’s, so I don’t know how it feels like, but of course, we had work to do. I had two days to prepare a presentation on a random subject about NYC, and I was kind of stressed about it (I’m a stressed person in general), and we had a little bit of presure for the final test (but I understand we weren’t in vacation but here to work).
The locations were always great I loved it !

The teacher is amazing
I really liked the fact that we were not a lot of students, only 4. We could learn a lot in a small Amount of time
.
The outdoor classes is a really interesting concept. We could discover new places in New York every day. The hours of classes are perfect from 10 to 1.30, free afternoon to discover the city.

The level of classes was not very advanced though. If you are looking for advanced English, this program will probably not suit you
The housing is amazing +++, lovely family, perfect neighborhood. This was a really good point

I liked the classes size - 2-3 students, very intensive schedule. Teachers were very friendly and helpful, always willing to explain any queries or doubts. Fantastic location of the school. I liked Fridays - the summary of the week + program for the weekend and the coming week.

There was a problem with elementary course because I was the one student. The teachers were expert and patient, but there was not sufficiently coordination between them.

I had a wonderful experience in Brooklyn. Maybe is much better if the school have two difference teachers for intensive program.


All day with a single teacher, its too much.

The classes were great (small like they promised), and the location was perfect. I didn't live in the shared student house, but I went there a couple of times and it was not clean.

I met some awesome people, learnt a lot, and I felt at home. Thank you!

I just can recommend the Brooklyn School of Languages to everyone! The school was very nice and all the staff were very friendly, and this also includes the activity leaders and the teachers. The activities were very nice, and I enjoyed the workshops which took place twice a week. The host family was very nice and friendly. There was absolutely nothing I didn’t like.

The Brooklyn School of Languages is totally incredible! The school, the teacher and all the staff are really great. I definitely had a great time there.

School is very well located, nice and new infrastructure, amazing view and friendly teacher.

The teacher, the location and the facilities were wonderful but the classes were not my level. I think the grammar taught was too easy but I could learn some new vocabulary. The activities we did with the school were good. The location of the house was good because I could walk to the school but the problem was that my bedroom was next to a very noisy highway and I had to wear earplugs to sleep. Besides, I think the house wasn't clean enough. The owner of the house didn't want us to cook any meat at home because he is vegetarian. I think I should know that beforehand.
