Tips for Learning English in New York

NYLC Midtown

by Gokay

I have been studying at NYLC for 17 weeks. I think studying at NYLC has some opportunities to improve my English. For instance, during these weeks, I joined lots of school activities and met lots of excellent friends and teachers. In addition to English, I learned Spanish, Japanese and Chinese words from my friends. During these weeks, I think my English has improved because in my first day when I tried to talk with people it was really hard to understand and communicate but now, every thing is more easy and also, I like watching American TV series. When I was in Turkey, I always watched them with Turkish subtitles, but now I can watch some of them without subtitles and with English subtitles. That’s amazing!


All in all, I think only taking courses is not enough to improve English, practice is extremely important, so I think NYLC is a great option to take a course because they have lots of cheerful and wise teachers and helpful advisors and also NYLC has lots of activities outside of school. I like NYLC, and I love NYC!
