Hadar HaTorah in Crown Heights will be your best bet. It is specifically designed for Ba’al Teshuvas of all levels. In all the levels of shiurim,the focus is translating and learning, and the rabbi’s do not rely on English translations. In fact, it is discouraged to use English translations because they want you learn the Lashon HaKodesh. Also, the rabbi’s provide amazing attention and support to ensure that you are grasping the material and correctly translating and understanding. And, money is never an issue. Many bochurim, myself included when I was there, were able to learn and live there without paying a dime. I hope this helps.
Hatzlacha!
