School

Our partner school consists of five buildings, all of which are situated five minutes away from each other. They are Richards Campus (main school building), Hastings Campus, Seymour Campus I and II 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.

Accommodation

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.

Residence, apartment, hotel
Other accommodation options in residences, shared or private apartments or else in hotels are also available.

Testimonial

Philippe Ramos I finally found an organisation that teaches languages effectively and that is not afraid of using innovative teaching methods: the school of my dreams! An average of 13 students per class, fun yet rigorous learning: this is possible! I was really surprised to see that the teachers were open-minded, available and professional! More than a student /teacher relationship, there was a real exchange in the classroom.
