Global English Academy in New York City combines the best qualities of both large university-based ESL programs and other private ESL schools. What makes us unique among private language schools is that all of our teachers have Master’s degrees in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and many years of teaching experience. Our professional faculty allows us to provide the highest quality instruction and academic preparation in English. Because we are a private school, we offer an intimate school setting, small classes and personal attention and support to our students, all at a lower cost than most university-based programs in New York City. The location of our school in Flushing, Queens offers a convenient, diverse and multicultural environment in which to study.

If your goal is to improve your English in a vibrant, urban community and study with experienced professional teachers, then Global English Academy is the right choice for you. Global English Academy offers three unique programs to meet the needs of every student:

Classes are offered Monday through Friday in the mornings, afternoons or evenings.

The English for Everyone Program offers integrated skills classes in the Evenings and on Saturdays which incorporate grammar, writing, reading, vocabulary and oral skills in order to help students achieve fluency and accuracy in English for their social lives or for professional use in the United States or abroad. Students may choose to study either for 3 hours on Saturday Mornings or for 4 or 8 hours on weekday evenings.
