Accomodation
Host family
Staying with a host family is the ideal option for discovering the Canadian culture and practising your English daily. The families are selected with care and are located a maximum of 45 minutes by public transport from the school. Staying in a single room with full board provided, this experience will also allow you to get to know the Canadian way of life from the inside, their customs, cuisine and hospitality.
IHT Student House
Our partner school also offers accommodation in a student house. Located about 30 minutes from the course centre, this large house has been recently renovated and offers a maximum of comfort. The single rooms are each equipped with a desk, toilet, wardrobe and television. The bathrooms and kitchen are shared with the other students. Internet access is available and there is a pleasant garden where you can organise memorable parties with your housemates.
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!
