A Philosophy That Makes NESE Both Distinctive and Remarkable The New England School of English was founded by an educator with an intentional philosophy, a philosophy that drives every aspect of NESE, guiding its day-to-day events and creating a special atmosphere throughout the school. Students note this atmosphere from their first attentive pre-arrival correspondence to the warm welcome they receive when arriving at their NESE housing to their experiences in their classes and activities all the way through to their tearful goodbyes when they leave the school. It is this atmosphere combined with NESE's high academic standards that students consistently cite as making the school both distinctive and remarkable.
