EC English Language Schools: Boston (Junior) - Tufts University

There were only three classes every day but some classes were completely overlapped. I enjoyed having conversations with friends but I could do it at home…

it is very happy to talk with different country student and teacher is very friendly

Most of the classes were boring: the activities we made in class were not very interesting.

Afternoon activities were bad organized, and we had few excursions outside the school. I would like to have seen more of Boston.

I was in the day plan and my parents were complaining that many times they were not informed beforehand about the activities and schedules.

I met a lot of people from different countries, and that was the best part. I enjoyed with them.

The orientation at the first day was excellent and you know where everything was. I was assigned to Teacher Jessie. she made her classes varied and interesting. While enjoying the meals at the cafeteria I talked to different other students. I liked the afternoon activities because we saw a lot of Boston. The only bad thing was, that I had to go back to the campus and back to the city where I lived. That took time.

Messy beginning, too many large groups of same native language students. But the brilliant teachers managed to sort it out and made room for the others.
Some of the afternoon activities were underwhelming and felt purposeless. But I made friends and practiced speaking.

It was quite good. I found the opportunity to practice my English. I also had fun during the program.

I did not use the possibility for housing, so I cannot comment on this, but the rest I liked very much.

Teachers were very good. classes were very interesting and activities were great. I loved this system with classes in the morning and several activities in the afternoon. I liked visiting boston.

According to my daughter, she was expecting more students than were there at the dorm. She could be better in communicating with more students and be friends.
In terms of the English classes, she has no experience to compare with.
In her words, she had a tough time. However, it is always hard for children to learn new experiences.
If I have a chance, I would send her back to the school which has more students to spend time with.

School activities were good; for example, our trip to Red Socks Stadium was unforgettable. I was glad to meet pupils from all countries, but there were some from my country too. Computers are excellent, but it's too cold in room where they are staying. I think that it's very good to travel in Boston not with teachers, but with friends. But I don't like food, there are too many hamburgers and sodas and no salads and fruits as I want. In complex life your college was excellent, thank you for it.

Everything was very good.

Very well organized process of learning and working with children. My daughter studied English for 5 weeks. She did not attend activities and lived with our family. She loved to learn. Most of all she liked Gabriel and Anastasia.

It was a great experience in my life! I was really enjoying my school and the host-family! Teachers in my class were fantastic, especially David. :) Thank you EC for this amazing 3 weeks!! I hope to return. :) P.S. Dear Karen Ong! My name is Kate. This is not surprising that you were confused, because it's not my mailbox, I'm sorry about this situation. About question of my life, horosho = good, I think you have wonderful Russian. :)

Exciting class, perfect location, professional teachers, interesting activities are satisfying.
