Tugce (Turkey)

I have defined my education as two parts. Firstly, I started in the ESL program

which is the smartest choice for developing the English language and when I felt my English skills improved, I continued with the Business English program. The reason why I chose this program is because I have a bachelors degree in Business Administration and this program (BE) helps me to learn business terms in more detail and prepares me for the business world. I teamed many other things in Vancouver. I met amazing people in my school coming from all over the world. We shared our opinions, learned cultural differences and talked about our lives in our mother countries. The most important thing is, we learned living together in a completely foreign country for a long time and we supported each other always so much that we became such close friends.

Jeronimo (Brazil)

Living in Toronto and studying at SSLC for a couple of months has made me better not only as an English speaker, but also in the way I live and see the world.

I could figure out my strengths and weaknesses and work on my feelings of anxiety, just to do my best daily.

I’ve never felt at home travelling the world the way I have in Toronto.

All of the employees and teachers are polite, friendly, and they make us feel comfortable to ask anything, even just general information.

Thank you SSLC Toronto, I feel so blessed to have been a part of your school.

Shogo (Japan)

I chose to come to SSLC because they have many activities, many international students and back in Japan my friend recommended this school.

At first I couldn’t understand the textbooks nor the vocabulary.

I would ask “How do you say this, teacher?”.

The first month was very hard but now it is easier.

I like ESL because of the grammar and listening classes and my teachers always have an answer to anything that I ask.

It is very comfortable to learn English here, I recommend SSLC Vancouver to everyone!

Vladislav (Russia)

When I first arrived in Toronto I was worried that the time spent here will be boring and the school will be ordinary, but everything turned out differently.

The teachers and all the staff that work at SSLC Toronto are very kind and sympathetic!

I would recommend this language school to everyone.

Mohammed (Saudi Arabia)

First of all, I want to say thank you Sprott Shaw Language College!

When I came here I couldn’t understand English and I couldn’t speak English.

Now I can understand and I can talk to the Canadian people.

Canadian people are so friendly!

A very big thank you to SSLC Victoria, they have great teachers and they are so kind.

I don’t want to leave.

Tien Cao (Vietnam)

I’ve studied at SSLC for a year.

When I came to SSLC I didn’t know much about English, but thanks to the help of my teachers my English improved so much.

The teachers are so friendly and nice with their students and are always encouraging.

Activities at school were exciting, I really enjoyed them, especially the Christmas party.

I really like SSLC.

Hyeonmook (South Korea)

SSLC has one important rule and that is “Only Speak English”. This was really effective for improving my English and conversation skills. All the teachers did their best to help me speak and they have plenty of after school activities. I built new relationships with many friends during my time here. Thank you SSLC Vancouver for everything!

Alexy (France)

After spending 3 months of pure happiness, it’s sad I have to leave SSLC Toronto. I only have good memories from my magical experiences here. In addition to that I enjoyed participating in the after school clubs, allowing me to learn even more and have a great time. I met incredible people from all over the world that I want and will visit. The supervisors are excellent and always listen to my requests.

Sam (China)

SSLC is a very good School.

On my first day I was a bit nervous but our teacher was very kind to us.

He taught us how to communicate with the other students.

I’ve had a great time at this place and liked that the School does many community services such as raising money for the BC Children’s Hospital, and collecting food for the Vancouver Food Bank.

Irving (Mexico)

If you come here you will make many friends from different countries.

This is the right moment to practice and improve your English.

Take advantage of this opportunity!

Siao-Wei (Taiwan)

I have been joining the IELTS Class at SSLC Victoria for 3 months so far, and obviously my reading skills have extremely improved.

The teachers are really excellent and they always answer my questions with a lot of patience.

I feel so lucky to be here and now I really reading articles in English every day.

Kristy (Panama)

I am so happy at SSLC. I really like that the classes are divided by skills, the organized structure really helps with your learning and improvement. The teachers are great and they really take care you are always speaking in English inside and outside the classroom, even on breaks and lunch time. Also, I like the classes are not big. I have improved lot my English here. I am about to take an Airline Cabin Crew elective which I am really excited about

Steven (Switzerland)

I’ve been studying English at SSLC Toronto for five months.

The long stay was totally worth it, I’ve met some great people at School and in my homestay.

My English has improved a lot and I would like to give a big thanks to the SSLC Staff, my homestay family and especially to my CAE Teacher, Andrew, who taught me so much.

I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to improve their English simnifically.

Julia (Ukraine)

I studied English at SSLC in Vancouver, where I was hosted by a Canadian family. They were super nice to me and took care of me. We shared meals and many other moments together! At school, I made friends from different countries; we went out shopping and sight-seeing. We spent a lot of time together, and I now have great memories with them captured on my camera. We still chat on social media! I liked Vancouver a lot. Come fulfill your dreams in Canada.

Kristos (Greece)

I came to Canada to continue my post-secondary education. However, before starting my program in Centennial College I decided to upgrade my English skills at SSLC. I have taken the IELTS class there.

IELTS was amazing because we had a professional teacher who could explain all the difficult rules and teach us effectively.

Also, we had a lot of practice which helped me to clearly understand the test. I am very happy that I chose this class.

Luana (Brazil)

I can’t choose a favorite teacher because I had two amazing teachers during my course, Renuka and Tricia.

I’ve learned so much with both of them.

Studying at SSLC Toronto Campus was a life-changing experience, even if it was only for a month, and I feel like I have grown so much as a person.

It was great to be in touch with people from all over the world in a school with great people working in it.

Muhand (Saudi Arabia)

I enjoyed studying here a lot. My best classes were reading and writing, they both were really fun subjects. The school administration is really good and the advisers are so friendly. Thank you SSLC Vancouver for everything!

Geon (South Korea)

When the time came to decide what to do after the high school my parents suggested me to go to another country to learn English. Since my sister is living in Vancouver for 7 years it was an easy choice for me to make. Besides I heard that Vancouver has the best weather in all of the Canada. I decided that it will be a first step to college. The most memorable thing about the school is that it has a wonderful atmosphere. In Korea I didn’t have a chance to make friends with international students. Here I have friends from Mexico, Brazil, Japan, Germany and many other countries. SSLC allowed me to prepare myself for the IELTS exam needed for the college. I would like to wish future students to be open to new experiences and do as much activities as you can!

Cagla (Turkey)

When I was in Turkey I looked for the best language school in Vancouver and I saw SSLC. SSLC has a great atmosphere, I met a lot of friends from all over the world. My favorite experience at SSLC was switching to the PMM (Power Speaking & Modern Media) class. The PMM class is more difficult than ESL but even more fun. For me SSLC isn’t just a school, SSLC is a new world, a new life.

Chester (Taiwan)

Hello, I am Chester from Taiwan. I graduated from SSLC’s EPE class. I had a great experience at SSLC and I wanted to share it with everyone.

SSLC was not the first school I attended in Canada, the first one was Seneca. I studied English one term in Seneca, then I began looking for a new school.

I met with my agent, and she helped me a lot by finding the perfect school to match my learning needs.

I also had a great teacher in EPE, she was not only a teacher to me, but also a good friend. I also enjoyed meeting new friends from all over the world, we enjoyed hanging out, visiting pubs and attending SSLC’s student activities.

My EPE teacher made our classes interesting and thought us in a way that we never felt bored in class.

After three months, I advanced a lot and I can now speak quickly and confidently in English.

Reading is not a difficulty for me anymore and I even watch English movies without the need for Chinese subtitles which was impossible for me before.

I chose SSLC because it let me finish my English Program quite fast, and the cost was less than other schools.

There is no words that I can use to show how thankful and grateful I am for studying at SSLC.

Kana (Japan)

I learned a lot of stuff, for example: “How to prepare business presentations.”

All the teachers were very keen. I really enjoyed the after school activities with classmates and got lots of English practice with friends.

Victoria is a beautiful and safe city.

Sarah (Switzerland)

I didn’t know what place to choose, but my friends who have been in Canada before recommended to me Vancouver, as it’s a very beautiful city. Before I had a chance to come here I haven’t practiced my English for 5 years. I worked for a few years back in Switzerland and started to feel certain stagnation, loose the sense of perspective. I felt like I need to improve myself. So the decision to study in ESL school came to me somewhat naturally, since no matter where I’m going to work in the future, knowledge of English would definitely benefit me. Unlike most of the schools, here I had a chance to learn the language in a very relaxed, no-pressure atmosphere. It allowed studying better and learning the material much faster. Having one-on-one Cambridge classes gave me a tremendous improvement in my grammar and speaking skills. The most important advice that I can give to future students is to have fun along with learning things. For me taking part in school’s activities was very important in overcoming the language barrier. Informal settings, activities with fellow international students and teachers help with being more open to communication which is the key to feel comfortable with speaking English.

Daniela (Mexico)

Being part of SSLC Vancouver was the most amazing experience that I have had. The teachers there were very dedicated and really committed to your education. Personally, I had the opportunity to learn a lot in this school. I started as an intermediate level student and after 6 months I was able to speak English fluently. Another thing I loved about studying at SSLC was the opportunity it gave me to make friends from all around the world; my classmates were from Japan, Korea, Ukraine, Brazil, Turkey and many other different countries.

A plus for this school is that it is located in downtown Vancouver, so after school you can go shopping, go for a coffee with your friends, or just go for a walk because there are many things to see and do. I would never change this experience, definitely was the greatest one that I have had!

William (Vietnam)

I attended SSLC in Surrey for about 3 weeks and after that, I moved to SSLC in downtown Vancouver for 1 month. It was an unforgettable experience. I feel that people in Vancouver are very friendly and kind. When I studied in SSLC, the teachers were very helpful and very diligent. Before coming to Canada, I only had Vietnamese friends, but now I’ve made friends with Taiwanese, Korean, Mexican, Turkish, Brazilian and Japanese, students. I’m very happy that I have International friends, they help me a lot. I hope SSLC will grow and prosper even more.
