Institute of Strategic Communication (ISC)

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a New Yorker? Learn the subway system by catching a different train each day for a new destination. Explore neighborhoods in the outer boroughs of the Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn. Discover Central Park as you never knew it. Through our unique way of experiencing the city – VLT’s – (Visit, Lecture, Tour) get a new and singular picture for yourself of this great city. For individuals, couples or families, the IBE gets you to explore the city from the perspectives of the diverse neighborhood composition, history, cuisine, and people. You’ll interact with and learn from a wide array of New Yorkers who have a lot to share with you and you will see your own communication skills improve dramatically and quickly. And you’ll get to know places that many New Yorkers don’t even know about. At half the cost of the GBE, the IBE gives you to a more independent, self-guided experience of the city.

Testimonials

“At the Museum of the City of New York I got a deeper understanding of the history of New York City and it made me more comfortable as a “New Yorker for a while. The overall content and Sara, our guide leader, was amazing with us.”

“I’m really glad with the results of this program. I think today that maybe, if I have one more week here it would be wonderful; probably I could improve my speaking skills even more.”

Renan ChiepeGeneral Director of Passenger Division, Grupo Aguiabranca, Brazil

On MCNY: “It was so interesting because I could understand the New York’s history, how the grid was planned and what was the Dutch influence. It was my second day and I had a lot of difficulty to understand other people, but the idea was to put me out of my comfort zone. Great!”

“The program was very good; in fact, more than I expected in relation to customization. Another important point is that it isn’t ever boring, although I felt exhausting sometimes because I received a lot of information. The introduction activities were so important and more important than that were the preview activities for the expeditions. In summary, my experience was great!”

Ana Cristina Freire dos SantosQueiroz Galvão, Panama

This IBE at NYTC definitely exceeded my expectations! I’m much more confident in my communication capacity and I fixed many problems in my English. The ‘case’ (study) classrooms were very important to me because I could get practice in the cases vocabulary, the cases’ “way of mind,” and besides, it really worked as “English homework.” I felt very proud in understanding almost 100% of 2 films and in talking with customer services by phone to solve problems. I really like the VLT’s. (Visits/Lectures/Tours) It’s a very good way to practice listening in an immersive cultural experience.
