Our Junior ESL summer program is designed for students aged 14 to 17 years old to learn English in New York. It is an immersion program including general English lessons, full board accommodation in shared rooms in host families, as well as a full program of supervised activities and excursions.
The English lessons takes place at St Francis College, located in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, 2 minutes' walk from our year-round English Language school.

The course includes 20 lessons (= 15 hours) of general English per week taking place Monday to Friday between 9:30am and 12.45pm. Our teachers are qualified, experienced and use an action-based, communicative method to encourage students to interact and use the language as much as possible, both in and out of class. There is a maximum of 15 students per class, grouped together according to level. Course materials are included (teachers use textbooks as well as authentic materials such as magazines, newspapers articles...)
Our activity program is designed to include the best of New York City and alternate between fun and educational outings. There are 5 half-day excursions and 1 full-day excursion per week (except the last week when Saturday is departure day).
Students stay in twin rooms with another BSL student of the same gender but different nationality, and share the bathroom with the family members. Breakfast is included at home every morning, then students make their way to school together by public transport. They also get back home together by public transport in the evenings. Lunches will be at St Francis College on weekdays, and a packed lunch will be prepared for the Saturday excursion.

I strongly recommend BSL. Actually its not only a school, it's like a big family. I spent 7 weeks there, it was my first time in NYC (and abroad) and I didn't speak at all at the beginning.
Thanks to The differents teachers I could improve a lot my English. Teachers are very comprehensive and helpful if you have any questions about NY. What is more, I also met lots of nice guys who came from differents countries.
If you go there, enjoy the view ;)

studiato Generale IngleseAmazing school!
I have attended BSL for 3 weeks during my summer holiday. The quality of teachers is very good. The locations is really amazing! You can see a spectacular view of Manhattan while you are attending English course. You can meet a lot of people from all over the world with their interesting culture! The school is small and this is absolutely a positive feature because it allows to know almost all other students.
I would like to come back here soon!

studiato Business IngleseAn imersive experience
I definitely recommend BSL!! Anyone that wants to learn english with a mix of usual teaching methods (books, exercises, tests), and through the imersion into english language on a daily basis, has found the perfect match. To be honest, at the beginning I was afraid that I would not like to go back to english classes because I thought that it was going to be like the regular boriness of schools around the world, and because I was doing it just to upgrade my resume, but once I got there, I notice that the environment is perfect to make you fell confortable to try to speak english, make mistakes, talk to other students, and because of it, I really started to enjoy the time that I spent there, in fact, in the end I even wanted to have more! The staff is amazing! Very funny and friendly, and always ready to help and teach you whenever you need, they are very understanding and easygoing wich makes you fell relaxed and confortable to get the most of the experience, therefore, all the students fell this way, and start talking to each other during break and even after class, at least this is what I`ve experienced. They also keep the students up to date for the REAL best activities in, and out of town, from outdoors cinema to concerts, festivals and parties, which you can go with or without them, and they even help you with usefull tips if want to know something about somewhere that you want to go like beaches nearby, parks, whatever, they know, or they will help you to get to know it! In sum, they are the best kind of school there is and I truly recommend it 100%! For anyone at all, regardless of your age or level of english.
