I really liked the school. Great location on Manhattan. I took the Business Elective class, the teacher Anthony is knowledgeable and makes his classes fun and interesting. The school offers a few outings every week in order for us to get to know New York better. The atmosphere is friendly and cosy, the classes are small so the teachers can pay attention to everyone.

I really liked the events and get togethers for Halloween, thanksgiving and Christmas.
What I didn't like was the Level of English in my class. My colleagues had a way loser Level of English than me which slowed everything down. I wasn't informed about this. This fact was kind of disappointing, other than that I liked my visit at ML a lot.
I really enjoyed the classes at Manhattan Language School. There were only six students in the class and the group work was very productive. The teacher Anthony was very competent and you always got the impression that he has a wealth of experience in Business English. I would book a course again anytime.
Show details » Read more...I liked very much the location of school and both teachers I experienced - Suzie and Anthony, I would recommend the school to my friends and would like to come in the future again.
The only problem i see is that there were fewer teachers and classes were sometimes too full (or the teacher was teaching two groups), also I paid for 2 whole weeks and would expect to get the refund for July 4h from your agency - the school was closed by that day.
My comment is that I would prefer to have only classes at present, not the online classes on Friday, which was difficult for me with internet connection so I missed one of the classes.
I think the school is providing good activities for students and also all the staff was always very helpful, especially director Ms. Bonita.
Thank you .. I enjoyed my time at your school.
The school is based in Manhattan, so it is very accessible.
The learning method is based on oral expression and allows students to progress very quickly. In 6 weeks I was able to move up to the next level. The grammar courses are also very interesting. The teachers and the school staff are really great and answer all our expectations. I really recommend this school.
Greta school. Greta teachers. Greta people! I loved every sigle says!

Still they gave me the opportunity to demonstrate my improvements because of the logical failures related to the language type whereof Dutch is part of. The building is great with a wonderful view on the Statue of Liberty and located Down Town Manhattan. Staff is very helpful and alert. Teachers are easy going. A very nice start to meet NYC.

The staff were kind and managed everything to guarantee the best experience for me. The teachers were excellent and very professional. The location is very accessible. I love all the outside activities around the city.
I strongly believe that my effort and my investment worth it.
The classes were very nice and the didactic of teachers left the lessons even more interesting. The employees were gentle, friendly and did all the efforts to gave us the best hospitality. The facilities were comfortable and the location was good - near of several subway stations. The extra activities were funny and very useful to put the lessons in practice.

The school is great, it's been a year that it is located in an amazing position in Downtown Manhattan, you can even see the wonderful view of the Statue of the Liberty from its windows! In addition you can easily reach the school by taking the subway lines which are located in the neighborhood.

I can say that at Manhattan Language I improved my English a lot since I've taken the elective class English through Film that enriched my vocabulary and my comprehension.
I strongly recommend this school!
The new location is amazing, teachers were the best and they were always attentive with our pronunciation and encouraged us to speak more in order to get a better and fluent English. All the people who works in the school were nice and easy to approach, They were excellent workers but also they were incredible and amazing people. Personally, I feel glad to be part of this family.

Show details » Read more...I think that teachers were always patient in explaining to students all the questions, and there were many activities every week. Their schedules were not very suitable for me as they were not so varied. I wanted to have my class in the morning and to enjoy the afternoon for visiting, but my favorite class was not available in the morning. I should have chosen the afternoon class. I lost my time to visit the city.
Everything else was good.

My first impressions were how attractive, funny, friendly, and helpful staff at ML were to me.
During my period, I learned a lot of different things from teachers and international classmates. Also, I took the TOEFL Test Preparation Program at Manhattan Language. I had a great experience with the TOEFL course and my teacher Jason B. The 12 week TOEFL preparation course was great. I learned how to pace myself as long as you are following instructions. I discovered how to select the right answer in the reading test, discovered my writing mistakes, and developed my grammar skills.
I got 87% score on the test.
