Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family is the ideal option for discovering the Canadian culture and practising your English daily. The families are carefully selected and are situated around 45 minutes by public transport away from the school. You will stay in a single room with full board provided. This experience will allow you to get to know the Canadian way of life from the inside, their customs, their culinary habits and in this way, get a taste of local hospitality.

Student House "IHT" (from 18 years)
Our partner school also offers accommodation in a student house. Situated just opposite the language school building, this large house has 22 single bedrooms available to students. These are all equipped with a desk, a wardrobe and a TV. You will share the bathroom, kitchen and other common rooms with the other students. The Student House also has a WiFi connection.

Leisure

There is so much to do in Toronto that it would be almost impossible not to find an activity to suit your taste: this city offers everything from rock climbing to sailing to baseball. Our partner school makes it a point of honour to offer a complete program of excursions, sports and cultural activities each week. Toronto is also a cultural melting pot where you can discover the Chinese, Greek, Korean and Italian districts. The city’s location means that you can escape to New York, Boston, Montreal or Ottawa for the weekend. Nearby Niagara Falls are also worth a visit, or you can try camping and canoeing in the magnificent Algonquin National Park. For after dark, the famous Yorkville district is perfect for drinks and dancing. It’s all possible in Toronto, 24 hours a day!
