English as a Second Language

ELLI is the Monroe College English Language Learning Institute. Located in New Rochelle, just 30 minutes from New York City, the Language Learning Institute provides students whose primary language is not English with the reading, writing and verbal skill necessary for success in United States colleges and universities. Students will become fluent in English through language instruction, cultural immersion, intensive lab experiences, and courses in U.S. culture and the arts through drama, music, film, dance, and graphic arts.

English Courses

The ELLI Intensive program is designed for international students that want to improve their English language skills so that they can apply to college or university in the United States. Students are exposed to all aspects of English language learning as well as American culture during their two semesters of study. At the completion of this program students will take Monroe college’s exit exam to receive a certificate of completion.

ELLI offers students an environment based on innovation and intensive English learning. This, combined with the fundamental and core elements of language acquisition, along with an engaging, creative social and extra-curricular experience, creates for a unique environment to learn English.

Three 12-week sessions are available each year. Students may start in fall, winter or spring. During each session, students will participate in 24 hours of classroom instruction each week as well as field trips and other activities.

Learn English in New York

Located in New Rochelle, just 30 minutes from NYC, the ELLI provides students whose primary language is not English with the reading, writing and verbal skill necessary for success in United States colleges and universities. Students will become fluent in English through language instruction, cultural immersion, intensive lab experiences, and courses in U.S. culture and the arts through drama, music, film, dance, and graphic arts.

Students will not only receive a top-notch education within the four walls of a classroom, but will also utilize the environment around them to learn. Trips are organized and planned every semester, based upon the needs and interests of the current ELLI student body. Many of the trips planned not only reinforce concepts taught in ELLI classes, but also expose the students to the culture of the New York City area. Past trips have included excursions to the New York Botanical Garden, The Museum of Natural History and Central Park. We even go out to dinner together sometimes!
