"Great program if you want to learn english and visit nyc at the same time!"

Salomé Lux, student from France

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 !

"Great experience"

Najima Banouh, student from France

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

"Very positve experience and friendly people"

Magdalena Bieniek, student from Poland

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.

"Challenging"

Rossella Pappagallo, student from Italy

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.

"Wonderful experience"

Jose Grateraux, student from Dominican Republic

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.

"Good"

Reetta Parviainen, student from Finland

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 really enjoyed my time in New York City"

Max Degenkolb, student from Austria

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.

"A good way to travel on your own"

Nerea Gabellanes, student from Spain

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.

Living as part of an English speaking household is simply the best way to truly immerse yourself in the language.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. The school is also not authorized to issue an I-20 to support an F-1 student visa application. If you need a visa, you have to apply for a Visitor Visa (B1/B2) on your own.

Flights and airport transfer

Please note that we do not book flights for our students. If you are researching airfare costs, we recommend using Kayak.com, a search engine that lets you compare flight options from your home country to New York City based on your budget, schedule and preferences.

School location

English Outdoors is an original and innovative concept of lessons outside sof the classroom, in locations all over the city, allowing students to sight-see and discover more of NYC while they study English.

Instead of being in a room with 4 walls, students learn in places such as Bryant Park, Union Square, Essex Market, Central Park, DUMBO, Industry City and more. The city is their classroom! Locations have been carefully chosen based on comfort, space, ease of access, proximity of public restrooms, etc. Alternative indoor locations are planned for rainy days, so lessons are guaranteed, every day, whatever the weather.

Being immersed in the city adds a unique element to the classroom experience. Instead of simply discussing NYC related topics in a classroom, students can truly experience NYC life and culture first-hand in authentic settings. Classes are rich in cultural content and conversation and also include regular cultural and educational field trips around the city.

Ask a question

"Can a student enrol on the course with an F1 Student visa – even if I exceeds the 18 hours per week maximum?"

Dyan Test, student from USA

Here is the advice that we can provide to students regarding visas: We always recommend that students come on a proper visa and it’s up to the student to make that decision. While the majority of our students come on an F-1 student visa, some choose otherwise. Unless otherwise instructed by the authorities, at the present time LSI will accept enrolments of individuals in any course of study should they present themselves at the school with a visa other than an F-l. In this case, the individual assumes all responsibility for the maintenance of their legal immigration status in the United States.
Persons with Tourist Visas are allowed to study at the school if their reason for being in the US is tourism and their course is incidental to this.
The student should be aware that if he or she chooses to travel on a tourist visa or visa waiver but tells immigration that he or she is coming here to study, the immigration officer at the Port of Entry (airport) may ask for a student visa which the student does not have. In this case, the student may not be allowed entry to the United States.

Yes This is fine

"Just one question, how far is the residence from the school?"

Catherine flamini, student from Italy

Not too far, it’s about 30 minutes subway.

The easiest way to get to school is by subway. The residence is a 30 minute subway commute from the school. Students can purchase a weekly ($30) or monthly (£112) Unlimited Ride MetroCard from Subway Station Booths or Metro Card Vending Machines (prices may vary).

"How far is it between Fredonia and NYC?"

Catherine flamini, student from Italy

Well it's not close, it's about 1hour flight from NYC to buffalo and then another 30 minutes approx. driver to campus. It's pretty to close to Toronto with about 2 And hours.
Bear in mind please it's campus life and experience so it focuses a lot on learning and experiencing college life, so it features 2 different styles between Manhattan and Fredonia.

"Can you guarantee that there will be a private bathroom for the student?"

Abby Aguilar, Brooklyn School of Languages, LLC school representative (Head of Admissions & Programs)

Since the students are
booking far in advance, the chances are higher, but unfortunately I still
can not guarantee that we can provide a private bathroom for them.
