Accommodation

Host family
In Canada, a sense of hospitality is part of the culture of the inhabitants. This type of accommodation will suit students which wish to make the most out of the advantages of total immersion in the language. The families, who are carefully selected, offer a single room as well as half board and live around 45 minutes away from the school. The students enjoy their independence whilst having the opportunity to practise the language in a natural manner outside of class.
