TEFL New York City | TEFL USA

Long known as a world powerhouse influencing art, culture, politics and economics around the globe, new york City rightly deserves its reputation as a truly global city. The most populous city in the United States and one of the world’s most visited, its numerous influences and countless attractions continue to draw people from all over the world either for pleasure, business or to start a new life. It is easy to see why such a magnificent city is a very popular destination for taking a TEFL/tesol course.

The first European settlement in the area dates back four hundred years but it was the social upheaval in Europe during the 19th century that really drove New York’s population boom. Large numbers of immigrants flooded into the city as they escaped famine in ireland and unrest on mainland Europe. The city has continued to grow ever since and is now one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world with over 800 different languages spoken by its residents, one third of whom were born overseas. With such a diverse population and a wide variety of cultures and traditions, it is no wonder that New York has influence and appeal on a global scale.

As you would expect of any thriving metropolis there is a seemingly never ending list of things to see and do in New York City. Must-sees for the first time visitor include the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, and an elevator ride up the Empire State Building to take in the magnificent skyline. Theater lovers are spoilt for choice with many shows running on and off Broadway and of course there is a vibrant live music scene with numerous venues catering for all tastes around the city. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle then head to the world famous Central Park where a large number of events take place throughout the year such as performances of Shakespeare’s plays and live music concerts. The park also houses a zoo, a castle and an ice-rink in the winter, as well as many other free and fascinating attractions.
