Language school Vancouver, International Language Schools of Canada

Our partner school consists of four buildings, all of which are situated five minutes away from each each other. They are Richards Campus (main school building), Hastings Campus, Seymour Campus and Granville Campus. Each of these has its own style but all of them have this atmosphere of warmth and community in common which characterises the ILSC schools. Together, they have more than 80 classrooms available for students' use, several language labs and a WiFi connection. As for the 6 student lounges, these will allow you to relax and to meet and chat with other international students over a coffee. Finally, the central location of the school makes access to public transport easy and all that Downtown Vancouver can offer you.

Host family
Canadian families are known for their warm welcome and for making their guests feel right at home. Host families live in the city’s residential areas, which offers a certain quality of life, but which means having to use public transport to get to the school. Students stay in single rooms and have half board or full board provided. This option is ideal for immersing yourself in the Canadian culture and for practising English in all of the situations of everyday life. It's also the opportunity to make friends for life in Canada. For more flexibility, it is also possible to book accommodation without meals included. In this case, you can still use the family's kitchen.
