Answer -
Jina,
Would you have a car? How do you want to travel?
You would take the Long Island railroad to Hicksville.
You would take a bus from the Port Authority Terminal to Paramus.

Answer Jina,
Both means of travel that I gave you are public transportation. As to which one is faster, that is difficult because of delays on the train or traffic with the bus. Paramus is closer, but with traffic it may take 45mins. Hicksville is about a 45 min train ride. Hope this helps.
