Our new English Outdoors concept is specifically designed to immerse students in NYC life and culture, giving students the unique opportunity to practice their English in authentic NYC settings.
English Outdoors means ‘outside of the traditional classroom’ but not necessarily outside in a park: our morning English classes take place in both indoor and outdoor locations all over the city. Instead of being in the same place every day, students will meet in a new iconic and authentic place every day.
This immersive experience includes 3 class excursions per week to explore the city and build English fluency through real-life situations and contexts.

Being immersed in the life and culture of NYC adds a unique element to the experience, as students are able to truly experience NYC life and culture first-hand in authentic settings.
NYC related topics and destinations are incorporated into the weekly conversation topics. Students are in the unique position to improve their English, expand their knowledge about NYC, be able to practice their English in truly authentic NYC settings, and live like a true New Yorker!

The city becomes the classroom! EO’s morning English classes in New York take place in locations (both indoor and outdoor) all over the city. There is a range of indoor locations for rainy days or when it is too hot in summer/too cold in winter, so lessons are guaranteed every day, whatever the weather.
Some examples of outdoor locations include Brooklyn Bridge Park, Bryant Park, Cobble Hill Park, Madison Square Park, Domino Park, and Union Square…
Some examples of indoor locations include Brookfield Place, Essex Market, Industry City, Barnes & Nobles, 180 Maiden Lane, & Park Avenue Plaza.
Some examples of class excursions include walking tours (Central Park, Bushwick, Roosevelt Island…), visits & tours (Grand Central train terminal, Chinatown, Museum of the City of NY etc)

No there is no book. We don't follow a traditional course book but handouts / class materials are provided for each excursion. English Outdoors focuses on fluency and gaining confidence instead of strict grammar instruction. Examples of fluency activities include discussions, debates, presentations, games, storytelling and of course our topic-driven class excursions:
We recommend you take a look at our ‘Focus on Fluency’ section in the About Us page of our website for more information on the concept.

If it rains, gets too hot or too cold, classes will switch to an indoor venue or be taken on one of our many cultural or educational class excursions located in indoor locations. New York City is full of great museums and semi-secret indoor public spaces!
-
Our homestays are located in Brooklyn, on average 30 minutes by subway to Brooklyn Heights and 35-40 minutes by subway to Lower Manhattan.
We alternate between locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan for our sessions so that students don’t always have to travel to Manhattan every morning, and also because there are plenty of great locations to explore in Brooklyn!
-
In New York, there's always something exciting to explore, so you will never get bored! We give you plenty of suggestions of things to do in your free time, including must-see attractions and famous sights, hidden gems, festivals, and markets, etc. And we also organize Happy Hours and other events.
Our daily location guides also include many cool ideas for things to do and places to visit in the area after class.
