"It was very enjoyable and useful period."

Mónika Kolompárné Pusztai, student from Hungary

The classes were very good; the teachers were very intelligent and prepared for teaching. The location and facilities were well-equipped. I liked the activities (mainly the Toronto Island trip). I don't know about the housing because I had other accommodations. So, I would recommend your school to anyone.
