Boston, the center of the American
Revolution, is the most historic large
city in the US, yet at the same time is
a modern city, offering attractions to
suit every taste and interest.
Boston
When you’ve finished studying for the day, then
head off and see all the sights that the city has
to offer - from whale watching to the Museum
of Fine Arts, from the famous Freedom Trail to
the colonial architecture of Cobble Hill and the
boutiques of Newbury Street, there’s something
in Beantown for everyone.
In a beautifully restored “brick and beam” building
from the 19 century, International House Boston is
based in Faneuil Hall Marketplace, South Market,
right next door to the famous “Cradle of Liberty” of
Faneuil Hall. The area is a bustling commercial and
business hub and is one of the most visited tourist
attractions in the U.S., minutes away from public
transport and right in the center of downtown Boston.
The classrooms are fully equipped with multimedia
technology, designed to provide a comfortable
learning environment. Students also have access to
free wi-fi throughout the building, computers in the
common area, a library and kitchenette.
IH Boston specializes in small group TOEFL,
Executive English and Private lessons.
