Course description

This course provides students with insight into the language and with effective methods of communication. Students take 4 lessons per day from Monday to Friday. Classes generally finish in the early afternoon so students will still be able to enjoy the majority of their afternoons sightseeing and discovering the city and local culture!

The four lessons that you will have each day are as follows:
1 lesson - grammar and general vocabulary exercises
1 lesson - conversation
2 lessons - reading, understanding texts, listening, writing

The course structure may vary depending on the individual teachers and students. The topics may refer to current articles from local newspapers and magazines. We work with texts that match the students' language skills. This way, the texts and topics can be discussed actively by the group.

*There is a possibility of a textbook rental for C$10/week. A C$80 refundable deposit will be charged at the time of a rental.

"An unforgettable and truly interesting expérience."

Mahé Luna Fantine PINTORI, student from France

I really enjoyed those three week.

We were well supervised in class as during the activities. Teaching and really suitable for students. The classes are very good if the sound insulation is to be redone. The location of the school is perfect because next to the city centre and 20 minutes from the lake! This is really ideal for visiting the city without paying for public transport.

As for the activities on offer, I found them well missing a departure party even if the pimp my flag existe.

My host family was very good although I regret not having played or activities with them.

"I had a wonderful experience in Toronto, especially at my homestay and in the school where I met very nice people and learned a lot."

Phuc Lanh Nguyen, student from Germany

I only had great experience at GEOS Toronto.

- Classes and teachers: Teaching is interactive, interesting, and engaging. The teachers I had were all motivated and made so many efforts in order to convey knowledge to students. I was able not only to improve my English (pronounciation, intonation) but also learned a lot in other fields (finance, politics, job application). All the staff always are in a good mood.
- Location: School was easy to reach
- Facilities: Everything was fine, all media were employed in an efficient manner
- Activiites: I took part in the excursion to French Canada. Quebec is such a beautiful place, but a little bit cold :)
- Housing: I had a great time which I spent with my host family. They are very warm-hearted and hospitable people. They took care of me very well and always have a good advice for me when I was travelling. Their house is located in a quiet neighborhood, easyly to reach by public transport. I talked to them very much, so that I could improve my spoken English.

Thank you.

"An amazing experience, that can change a lot in the, near, future."

Tom Dekker, student from Netherlands

The classes were nice and clean, just a little small.
The teachers were always nice to us and even hanged out after school with some of them.
The location was fine, nothing special.
The facilities were very good; a kitchen to heat up lunch, a Candy machine, a soda machine, a fountain for hot and cold water the only thing were the toilets; boys was not clean and girls always had to wait a long time or use the one of the teachers.
activities were not that great to me...

liked (the most); classmates
disliked (the most); that the classmates didn't spoke English, at school.
