Considering its modest size, it’s amazing what a popular, influential and world-renowned city Boston has remained. The capital of the state of Massachusetts and, unofficially, of the entire New England region, it is one of the oldest cities in the whole of America. As a result, it is home to a vast array of fascinating historic sites, but it’s not just these that attract the tourists. Walking around Boston, visitors can take in the quaint brownstone-lined streets, the big-city entertainment venues and, of course, Boston’s world-famous educational institutions. The likes of Harvard and MIT have long attracted philosophers, scientists and writers, which ensures that Boston has an atmosphere that is not only vibrant but cosmopolitan too.
Cactus works with two English schools in Boston - one on the campus of Lasell College in the affluent area of Newton, and the other in the centre of the city, close to Chinatown and the Financial Districts. Students can choose between General English, Intensive English, or the more specialist options of Business English, Academic Year English or Exam Preparation English. Accommodation can also be arranged in addition to your English course.
