Hello! My name
is Sandra from Brazil. I went to Montreal at June. The reason why I chose Montréal
is because I wanted to study English and French together. Montreal was an
excellent choice for me, since my English and French skills improved in a great
deal. I took not only the General English but also took IELTS courses to raise
my English level. Studying can be tiresome and boring, but thanks to the
teachers, who encouraged me, I was able to get through the course without
receiving so much stress.
Montreal is a
brilliant international city. While I’m staying here, I met so many students
from a variety of countries and continents, such as Saudi Arabia, Columbia,
Switzerland and Russia. The experience I had in Montreal is so valuable to me.
I strongly recommend
Montreal EC for those who are willing to receive a higher score on IELTS and
study in a stress-free environment. I really love the teacher and faculties
there. I was a little bit insecure about leaving me hometown, the faculties in
Montreal EC made me feel home. Thank you everyone in EC!
