EC New York English Language School

A few weeks ago we had an incredible talent show here at EC New York.  Our students and staff impressed and shocked each other with performances in opera, dancing, guitar, violin, and more.  Click the link to see short clips of each performance.  The full DVD is available at the school.  Enjoy EC talent!

Recently, Ena, the student counselor,  took some students to Governor’s Island for the City of Water Festival.  They took a boat tour to see the different harbors of New York City including the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the Brooklyn Bridge.  “It was a lot of fun and a great way to spend a Saturday,” says Ena.  Check out these pictures of the students enjoying a New York summer day:

Last week an EC New York teacher, Katya, taught an afterschool breakdance workshop.  Students learned about the history of breakin’ which started right here in New York City! We watched a few short videos of breakdancers from all over the world.  Then, students had the opportunity to learn a few moves themselves!
