- Boston - The Best City to Study English
- Boston is a wonderful place to study English as a foreign language for several reasons. The first reason is that there are many good language schools here. For example, Boston Academy of English is located in downtown Boston. It has great staff and new, up-to-date technology. Another good school is the New England School of English, which is located in Harvard Square and has many students from many different countries all over the world. Another reason is that Boston is near some of the best universities in the world. One of the great nearby schools is Harvard University, located in Cambridge. It is consistently ranked top among all US universities, and is often considered the best university in the world. In Cambridge there is also the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which is one of the best schools in the world to study science and technology. Finally, Boston has really great weather in the summer and fall. There are many outdoor activities to do during the summer, and many of them are completely free. Autumn in Boston is not too hot and not too cold, and all the trees start to change into beautiful colors. Due to its excellent language schools and universities as well as its great weather, Boston is your best option for studying English in the summer or fall.
