"Great experience of learning friendly"

Florence SEYSSEL, student från Frankrike

First of all in my opinion, the location of this school was perfect . The school is located downtown in a small city called Burlington on the shore of Lake Ontario. It was really nice to cycle every day to school.
The school has 5 classes and I had the opportunity to take lessons with 4 different teachers. We were a maximum of 9 students per class. The teachers are really serious in their work but also in their friendships. They create a pleasant atmosphere in the classroom and give students confidence. My schedule was from 9.00 am to 2.10 pm everyday except on Friday from 9.00 am to 1.00 pm.
We had homework everyday. This helps you learn. We followed a textbook with articles very interesting. We had time to talk each morning about what we had done the afternoon before.
We also had the opportunity to socialize with different students outside of school. In my case, I went to a pub, then watched an outdoor movie and I went to a salsa dance party.

The only thing that I noticed negatively was the difference of level between the students. Some of them were in a lower level and I was surprised to have them in the same class as me. I guess their level were too high for the other classes.

Regarding my hosting, I was really lucky to meet Julie. Julie lives alone and we are around the same age, so our relationship was easy and friendly. She took good care of me. Over the week-ends, I went with her and another student kayaking in a lake.
I went to a BBQ one day to her friends house and another day to visit Niagara on Lake and Niagara Falls.

"It helped to improve my English. However, I really think that the fees don't suit the hours of the course. I found it a little expensive."

Amjad Alarifi, student från Kanada

It helped to improve my English. The teacher is a very respectful person. The place is cozy and the location is not bad. However, I really think that the fees don't suit the hours of the course. I found it a little expensive.

"It was a great stay at English Encounters."

Monika Lakota

I enjoyed my stay in Burlington. I like English Encounters very much. The teachers were very cool and easy-going. If you had some questions, the teacher always helped you and explained everything. The sizes of the classes were very good I think (up to 8 people).

Burlington is a very nice city, where you can feel very safe. There are a lot of activities to do in your free time. You can visit the Niagara Falls, visit Toronto, the Hamilton Falls, a lot of Outlet Stores, or just stay in Burlington at the Lake Ontario and much more. I am very happy having been to English Encounters. I met a lot of great people from everywhere around the world, and I had the best teachers in my life.

Burlington, en stad på 166 000 människor, är en underbar plats att bo och studera engelska. Det ligger i södra Ontario på norra stranden av Lake Ontario mellan Toronto och Hamilton. Det är ett mycket säkert område med hög levnadsstandard.

Vi är ett litet och vänligt språkcenter inom gångavstånd från sjön, parken och strandpromenaden, stranden, ett stort köpcentrum, restauranger och pubar samt buss- och järnvägsstationen. Det är mindre än en timme till Toronto eller Niagara Falls med tåg eller bil.

Enligt MoneySense, en ledande livs- och investeringstidning, är staden Burlington den bästa staden för att bo i Greater Toronto-området och näst bästa i Kanada! Du kan läsa hela artikeln på MoneySense-webbplatsen.

Ställ en fråga

"I have a prospective student who would like to study at English Encounters. Do you need the student to pay before the registration? Or could she sign up for a certain length of course first, and then request to make it longer when she is studying with you? Her aunt is booking the course, since the student is in Venezuela. Can her aunt come to visit your school?"

Frida Test, student från USA
Felix Woehler, personal på English Encounters

When students need a visa to come to Canada, they need to make a deposit which equals the first 4 weeks of her course. Also, you mentioned the student is from Venezuela. In this case, the organization CADIVI transfers the whole amount into our account (in case the student applies for the currency, CAD, at CADIVI. Furthermore, the student should at least know if she wants to study less or more than 6 months in order to apply for the correct visa. Yes, the aunt is more than welcome to visit us at any time and I would be happy to help her!
