I liked the classes, there were just enough students to make the courses interesting. The teacher was great!! Regarding the location, it was OK, not too far from where I lived. Concerning the facilities, I think students should find computers and printers to use. We had a workshop at the Tenement museum that I liked so much!
"I spent 3.5 months at this school during the summer 2012."

I am a French student and live in Paris.
I did a 3.5 month internship at this school and studied in the morning during the summer of 2012 .
It has a medium structure but is well organized starting with the administration for visas and student information; the staff help students and advise nicely. I enjoyed the administration; they are friendly.
You are in a small group and the professors have good experience in teaching. They come from nice universities.
They use good methodology in teaching. Also, they are available by phone or mail if you have questions or if you need help you can contact them or talk with them outside of classes.
This school offers different activities such as tours, events, soccer games and baseball games. The area is nice; you can find the stadium of the NY Mets and tennis games for the US open.
The housing in Queens is very cheap compared to Manhattan. The WYMCA is close to the school. Many forms of transportation are available, like the number 7 subway, bus and other trains.
This school has partnerships with some colleges and universities, so if you wish to study in NYC, you can study while studying English.
The school is really good in every aspect, with excellent certified teachers and supporting staff and the prices are very good, too.
Besides, you will be living in New York which is an amazing city.
The size of the classes are small, about 5 people, so you can talk a lot and learn faster than in bigger classes offered by other schools.
This school also has a TOEFL course, which I took, and I got an excellent score.
I also studied at another school in downtown New York, at a well-known university, and I can tell that Global ESL is way better. So don't think too much about the names of the schools but what people actually say about the schools.
If you really want to learn, I truly recommend this school.

The experience was amazing. It certainly helped me to learn english, improve my pronunciation and my listening. The classes were great. Both of my teachers, Rita and Sarah were able to teach all of us by using activities that allow us to communicate and speak with each other, what meant the lessons were funny and I really enjoyed them. Being able to know people from all around the world was awesome. I made friends that live in places so far away from my country, and the school gave me the opportunity to know them. I could also enjoy the tours. It was good to visit places I was not able to visit on my own. The tours were relaxed, we could have fun and learn more about different areas in New York. The school was far away from the place I was living in, but in my case that was in advantage as it allow me to move on my own in a way I felt really free. Everyone at the school was respectful and warm, and made me feel relaxed and welcomed. It was an amazing experience, better that what had imagined!
The classes were small (5-10), so it encouraged group work and oral participation.
Teachers were also really friendly and open minded.
The activities we have done in class were sometimes demanding (Of course we have to work sometimes!), but sometimes very relaxing and funny (playing kind of games, linked to what we learned previously). Some sightseeing tours were also available with the school.
The school itself is well located, not too far from the subway and with supermarkets around. The GEA facility is small, but big enough for the 10-30 students inside.
My housing was OK and my host very nice.
There is nothing I really disliked, so my overall experience at GEA was really great, and I would surely recommend this school.
