If
you choose to study English at ELC in Boston, you will discover
a charming world-class city that is young, brilliant, energetic
resourceful and unforgettable. |
 |
Boston
is where the USA began. Urban center of the region
called New England, Boston is one of the country's
most diverse cities. Rich in history, with an impressive
architectural heritage, Boston is also where the
computer and biotech revolutions began and where
academic life is most heavily concentrated. |
 |
|
 |
Harvard,
the nation's oldest and most famous university,
is here. So are some sixty other colleges and universities,
including MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology),
one of America's leading centers of science and
engineering. Altogether these institutions draw
hundreds of thousands of students to Boston. They
generate the youthful, forward-looking energy for
which the city is celebrated. |
|
| You'll
find ELC in the middle of it all, in the stylish
Back Bay area close to the Charles River and popular
Public Garden. Just a few blocks away, delightful
art galleries, boutiques, bookstores, and sidewalk
cafes line cosmopolitan Newbury Street. Afternoon
excursions will take you to Cambridge where Harvard
and MIT are located and to Faneuil Hall Marketplace
(the country's number one tourist destination),
the Freedom Trail, the Museum of Fine Arts, the
Museum of Science, and sports events of all kinds. |

Outside
the city, the countryside is inviting in all seasons.
Sun seekers praise the sandy Atlantic beaches stretching
south to the dunes of Cape Cod and north along the
New Hampshire shore to the picturesque coast of
Maine. Skiers rave about the facilities, dependable
snow cover, and beautifully groomed trails of the
region's numerous mountain resorts. And nature lovers
from all over the country visit the Berkshire Hills
in western Massachusetts each autumn for the brilliantly
colorful foliage. |
|
| On
weekend excursions you will enjoy Cape Cod and historic
Plymouth Plantation, the Maine coast, Riverside
Amusement Park, and more. And weekend trips will
take you to New York City, Montreal, the Berkshires,
Vermont's Green Mountains, New Hampshire's White
Mountains, and Newport, Rhode Island. |
