"I’m totally grateful!"

Marie-Ève Charlebois, student from Canada

I’m totally grateful to have a chance to be part of the EC English family.

The staff take time with each student to check on us, to evaluate our level, to meet our needs.

Also, they found a lovely homestay family for me. I can speak English at home, spend time with them and share very good food every evening.

Sure, the current pandemic change something. They don't have a class 30+ and they can't organise some social activities. But the employees do all they can to respect the Governement restrictions.

After only six weeks, my English has improved a lot.
