Course description

ILSC offers a wide range of courses. You can take any combination you wish, depending
on your interests, goals, language level and schedule. Most courses are offered at many
different levels and last four weeks. At the end of the four week session, your language
level will be assessed. You can then choose new courses and/or move up a level in your
current or new course. Evaluations are based on the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB).

One session consists of four weeks and students choose classes every session. The course selection for the first session will be done at the orientation. After you learn about the programs, you will choose the classes and you will study in those classes in the first session.

How do you choose classes from the second and subsequent sessions?
Every last week of the session, you will have a chance to have a short one-on-one meeting with your teacher. Your teacher will share with you your Student Progress Report (Evaluation) and feedback on your language improvement. Based on this and your interests, with your teachers help you will choose your classes for the next session.

In the last week of a session, you will submit a ‘Learner’s Feedback’ form for the classes you are taking. ILSC appreciates student's feedback on the classes and the teachers. We use the information we collect from students to improve our schools.

"Great!!! The teachers are amazing, and everyone at school is welcoming."

Maria Arias, student from Canada

The first day of class was a good day, which is important because it allows you to adapt to school and your classmates.
The classes are good and while you learn you can solve doubts, with the help of the teacher (teacher in my case), and then you start to solve them individually, with what you have learned, you only ask questions when you are not sure what to answer yourself. .
The environment inside the school is good, the classrooms and the place, in general, are comfortable.

I would recommend it, if i was asked.

"Excellence"

William Mbilinyi, student from Canada

Well classes were great, competent teachers, a lot of interaction during the classes and before classes, a lot of exercises and practices, the use of teaching resources and materials was so helpful. Yeah, language workshops as well were helpful.

I did like mostly the culture of welcoming and appreciating the limitations and strength of each student, patients with teachers and motivation as well. I was staying with friends so there was no problem at all with housing for me.

Over all my experience was great and I really enjoyed taking classes with ILSC.

"Excellent experience. I felt like I'm in a family, whether by the program advisor/teachers or even the students"

Chawki Chami, student from Saudi Arabia

Even though my case was a little bit special. I needed to improve or refresh my French that I didn't use since 9 years after being French educated during my school and university studies, I found that the advisor and teachers were so cooperative and they tried their best to help me achieve my goal.

Ann or Anna, I still mix between the English/French advisors names, was so helpful.
Feriel, who was teaching me the communication morning classes was extremely helpful and she's great at what she's doing.

Selma and Zahra were also great but I didn't have the chance to study in their classes except for only 1 week.

Thank you for the great service. I wish you can add vending machines for coffe,snacks, water etc.. at reasonable prices in the same floor.
Or maybe water coolers ( hot/cold ) would be a great addition.

Thank you.

"I met too many new friends in this school and i really like this."

ALFONSO VILLEGAS MAC GREGOR, student from Mexico

I like the classrooms because they don't have many students so i think is better for the students.

My teachers always were a good teacher because they always had prepared the topics for the class and if i had a question they always helped me.

But i am in disagree with the organization in the school because sometimes they didn’t have a good accomodation with the studente for example i stay in the same level because others classrooms have too many students and sometimes in my classroom we had too many mexicans or students that speak in spanish.

"To study not boringly"

Oleg, student from Ukraine

To study not boringly and cheerfully, but the program is not for the lazy. The web site is good. My advisor helps me when I ask. Some offices have no curtains or jalousie from the sun. Teachers are polite, punctual and patient. Located near to the subway-OK.
