ACTIVITIES AT
RENNERT
![Page 2: Activities at Rennert](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052312/568bd6f31a28ab20349df2d2/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Another reason why I chose Rennert is the extensive calendar of
teacher-led activities.
Whether you are attending a Broadway show (e.g. The Lion King, Mamma Mia, Wicked), a Gospel Music
service in Harlem, or a free guided city tour, there is something for every taste
and interest!
The great thing is that you practice English while having fun and meeting new people! There are no different levels like in class, and I really
improved my English by talking to other students from higher levels.
Of course the activities depend on the season. In summer, you could do a lot of outdoor activities
like yoga at Bryant Park, a walking tour of Williamsburg or Chinatown, fireworks on Coney
Island, or a Dance Safari on Hudson. In winter, Rennert offers activities like ice skating at Bryant
Park, visiting Christmas markets or watching Christmas musicals like the “Nutcracker”.
I enjoyed a lot of activities in August and September which I would like to
share with you in my new photo album!

STOP #1: WILLIAMSBURG
Walking Tour of Williamsburg with David! First, we took the subway to Bedford Avenue. David showed us McCarren Park where we watched a baseball match.

After the baseball match, we went to the East River to enjoy a great view of
Manhattan.

The Mamma Mia musical on Broadway! I got the ticket for $ 55
at Rennert!

STOP #2: BROADWAY
Unfortunately I wasn’t allowed to take photos during the show. To put it in a nutshell: the musical was awesome!
“You are the Dancing Queen, Young and sweet only seventeen.
Dancing Queen, Feel the beat from the
tambourine…”

STOP #3: NEW YORK FILM ACADEMY
I also attended a workshop at the New York Film Academy.
The topic was “Intro to Acting”.

The workshop was facilitated by Lester Thomas Shane. He works as an actor, director and writer. He has been seen on television, film, the New York stage, and in regional
theatre.

In the first part of the workshop, Lester told us
about the history of theater, and the
development of drama.

which were really funny.

STOP #4: WASHINGTON DC
2-day trip to Washington DC! We went by bus to the
capital of the United States. The White House was very
impressive. Unfortunately, we didn’t see President Obama there. I knocked on the door,
but he didn’t open.

STOP #4: WASHINGTON DC
We also visited the United States Capitol which is the
place where the United States Congress meets.
Close to the Capitol are a lot of museums, and most of
them are free!

STOP #4: WASHINGTON DC
This is the Washington Monument. It was built to
commemorate the first U.S. president: General George
Washington. It’s the world’s tallest obelisk. After visiting the
most important sights of Washington DC, we went to a bar to celebrate our Washington trip.

STOP #5: O’NEILL’S
Every Monday, there is a Rennert Mixer at
O’Neill’s Pub! Here you can meet your fellow Rennert students, and have fun with them.

STOP #5: O’NEILL’S
At O’Neills, Rennert students get some food for free, and enjoy cheap drinks. From 4 to 8 PM, you can
get a beer for $4.

STOP #6: Cirque Du Soleil Zarkana
I love “Cirque Du Soleil Zarkana”! The story is about the adventures of a magician named Zark who lost all his powers,
and the love of his life. It was so awesome!
