BS ESL summer school which 1 for intl student?

<p>Hello</p>

<p>I am from France and would like to send my 13 year old kid to ESL summer school in July.</p>

<p>I have made a shortlist of:</p>

<p>-Salisbury
-Choate
-Loomis Chaffee
-Taft
-NMH</p>

<p>anybody could give me some feedback on those school and their summer program especially ESL if possible?</p>

<p>some of the questions I have:</p>

<ul>
<li>how are the campus? which one would be good for a true NE campus experience?</li>
<li>are the teachers regular teacher from the school or summer intern?</li>
<li>how safe are those campus and surrounding?</li>
<li>how good a job do they make to really integrate international students into campus life?</li>
<li>international students and americans are really encourage to mix?</li>
<li>anybody has gone to NMH community service class? what is it exactly?</li>
<li>any feedback on off campus trip?</li>
<li>I was thinking that a smaller program such as Loomis or Salisbury might be a plus for integration, what do you think?</li>
<li>are the international student body really diverse in terms of origin? I don't want my kid to end up with a crowd of french speaking students?</li>
</ul>

<p>I am interested in any good or bad feed back you might have, this will greatly help me to take a decision.</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Yosisare: All of the campuses are safe, all encourage all students to mix. Choate currently has two students from France and has an iconic New England campus.</p>

<p>(Sorry, no experience with summer or ESL programs.)</p>

<p>thank you choatiemom most reassuring to hear that</p>
