5 AMAZING CITIES TO STUDY ENGLISH!

5 AMAZING CITIES TO STUDY ENGLISH!

 

If you follow me on instagram, you might know that I’m currently taking classes at ILSC, one of the top english schools in the world. Even though I’ve been living in New York City for 7 years, I felt the need to polish my English by taking business and academic level classes at ILSC to improve my vocabulary even more. The experience has been great and made me wanna travel to different cities around the world to continue improving my skills and learn more about other cultures! So after searching the ILSC websiteI decided to create a  top 5 cities where I would love to study english one day to inspire you too!

 

New York City, United States

I couldn’t leave NY out of this list, it is not only “the greates city of all” but it’s also an amazing opportunity to meet people from all over the world! The ILSC campus is centrally located downtown in Manhattan, close to the famous Brooklyn Bridge. Wall Street, City Hall, and many other iconic sights are all within close walking distance from the school. ILSC-New York is also an official language test centre for IELTS
