アクセス・インターナショナル・イングリッシュ・ランゲージ・センター

For the 3rd time in a row (in 3 years) with stays of a month or two, I came to this school both for tourism and at the same time to improve my level of English (quite demanding in my profession) .I went from an intermediate to advanced level by attending twice a General English program and once a TOEFL preparation for North American studies. You can expect a very warm welcome, the courses are very well organized: English level test on the first day, distribution of students by level, then a two-week course with many topics (grammar, written expression, oral ... ) and then another test and reorganization of the levels according to progress. Courses are tailored to your needs: level improvement, preparation for ETS TOEIC or TOEFL tests, etc .... The teachers know the difficulties of language learning in terms of your origins, and know how to answer your misunderstandings so you can learn to think in English when you speak English and not think in French then translate into English. I don't know anything about the accomodation options because I stayed with somebody in my family. But the school is very well located for access to the city center (close to metro stations). I recommend this school to many people. To force yourself to improve your English you need to live with a host family and not in residence or hotel. This allows you to avoid talking in your native language with other students from your country. The students I met were interesting because they come from all over the world: Europe, Asia, Mexico, South America .... So a great mix, a discovery of the cultures of other countries and Canada too. Lots of activities were organized between students (beach, sports, museums, group travel to NYC & Niagara Falls) ... I maintain my contacts with fellow students to continue speaking English. I recommend this school. I advise you to stay minimum one month and half. (One to two weeks to adjust, and then the rest to begin to make progress on your English)

The school is small and nice. You can enjoy the other students. The teachers are so friendly and they give really good classes. I was there for 6 months, and I learned a lot.
