I found Rennert through an internet search. Since they received good reviews all around, I decided…read moreto take classes in Mandarin and German. I've had nothing but good experiences. The classes are structured to enforce language skills but reading is not neglected. The classes are small which means every student gets practice speaking the language they are learning with the teacher and one another. The price is affordable with either 5 week or 10 week semesters. You will learn plenty even in 5 weeks because the teachers are fantastic. I definitely recommend Rennert.

I can read spanish and write spanish, but before taking this class i was not comfortable speaking spanish and it was difficult to talk. After 5 weeks of class, i am much more comfortable and i have built more skills around the language. I think my success is because the class were so small, speaking spanish was encourage through out the class, and our instructor spoke to us in spanish through out the whole class. I really enjoyed it.

I really recommend this language school. I was study there one year. First,you have many classes…read morecan choice. They have academic class,film class,business class and pronunciation . I took pronunciation for five months then transfer to academic class. Second, teachers are really nice, if you have questions just ask, don't be afraid. They are really nice. Third，school activities . Every week almost everyday has activity, you can join it then you will make new friends,also practice speaking. Last one school stuffs also really nice, if you have questions about programs ,ask them. They will give you the advice. This all my experience in Manhattan school. Enjoy your life in NYC and Manhattan school.:))

took Coucou's online placement test and was placed into an intermediate-level class. Unfortunately,…read morethe placement was not accurate. There was no real evaluation, just an online quiz, and when I arrived in the class, I quickly realized after a few sessions that it didn't match my needs at all. The class was pure conversation with no grammar explanations, no structure, and no rules, which made me feel completely lost. I actually needed more grammar-focused support, not just conversation. When I tried to switch levels, I wasn't offered a proper solution. Instead, I was only given about 70% credit for my remaining classes, with a two-month expiration. I couldn't use it because I was traveling, and their response time was slow, so the credit essentially became useless. Overall, I was disappointed with how the placement was handled and how inflexible the school was in helping me find the right level. I expected a more supportive and structured experience.

JP linguistics is a great place! I had the wonderful Pauline as my French teacher who helped me…read morereview everything I needed. She really accommodated to my needs and adjusted each lesson based on it which I appreciate!

I would recommend JP linguistics to anyone who is interested in learning a foreign language stress…read morefree! I took an advanced intermediate 10-week French course with JP, and it was a great learning opportunity. Whenever I learn a new language, my biggest fear is to actually speak the language because I am afraid that my counterpart wouldn't understand me, and if he/she doesn't, I wouldn't know how else to explain my ideas without speaking English. Not only is JP very approachable and friendly, but JP is also a very professionally qualified instructor (as he also teaches some French classes at NYU) and can immediately detect what you are trying to say and offers you with better ways (i.e. how natives would say) to express your ideas. JP sincerely wants to get to know everyone as much as he can and follows up with you so that he can be of help if you intend to continue to improve your language skills. My job requires lots of hours in winter, so I couldn't register for classes, but I will definitely be looking in spring if I could fit a class in my schedule.

I love taking classes with Juan Carlos. I've progressed much more in a year and a half than I ever…read moreexpected, and to the extent that I feel I could have progressed more, it's only because I don't always go as frequently as I should. Juan Carlos makes it fun and low-stress to learn Spanish, while maintaining just enough strictness and structure that you don't get too casual about learning. He's flexible with class schedules, and the classes are very reasonably priced for the amount of personal attention you get. He's also just a cool, interesting guy! I'm pretty sure I will be continuing to take classes with him for as long as I remain in NYC. Thanks, Juan Carlos :)

I tried different schools back home and in the US, but I never truly learned something new or felt…read morethat my English was improving. I was in the advanced level and was told that I don't need it anymore, but I knew that wasn't true because Americans did not understand me always, or I couldn't understand them. And it was finally when I attended Global ESL Academy that I felt an improvement in my English. I learned something everyday, and realized why I wasn't understood sometimes because I wasn't expressing myself correctly. I even learned the rules for comma usage and realized that all the emails I had sent so far were full of mistakes. I learned more vocabulary and was able to recognize those new learned words in conversations with American people and felt more confident about myself. I really enjoyed my time at this school and I think that Wendy Trach is one the best teachers I had so far. She is great! I strongly recommend Global ESL Academy. I liked that the school helped me find a good place to live really close to school as well :) Sent from Mail for Windows 10
