You need to define variables before you use them!

require "modules/mailer.php";
$email_send = new mailSend();

$subject = "Please verify email!";
$message = "Thanks for signing up!

            Please click on the link below:


            ".$url."";
$email_send->sendMail($email,$message,$subject);

To get PHPMailer to throw exceptions, you need to ask it, by passing true to the constructor:

$mail = new PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer(true);

Now to get responses out of your class, you need to return something, so change the end of your send function to this:

$result = [];
$mail->send();
    $result['success'] = true;
    $result['message'] = "Mail sent.";
} catch (Exception $e) {
    $result['success'] = false;
    $result['message'] = "Failed. Mailer error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
}
return $result;

Then when you call your function:

$result = $email_send->sendMail($email,$message,$subject);
if ($result['success']) {
    echo $result['message'];
    //Do whatever else you want to do on success
} else {
    echo $result['message'];
}
