Accomodation
Host family
In Canada a sense of hospitality is part of the culture. This type of accommodation will suit students who wish to enjoy all the advantages of total immersion. Families are carefully selected and offer accommodation in single rooms with full board provided. Students will have the chance to practise the language in a natural manner, outside of the classroom.
Leisure
The school organises a complete and tempting program of leisure activities that will allow you not only to have fun while discovering the country, but also to meet other students from the school. These types of social activities also involve plenty of adventure, Canada being a country with a unique natural environment where you can enjoy all sorts of activities and extreme sports while contemplating the whales swimming off the Pacific coast.
