Success Story of our Colombian Students

While he was here, he wrote the testimonial below:     “How I fell in EC? Well, I fell that EC is my home now. I have been studying here for three months. I have made a lot of friends.           Although some of them have returned to their country we keep in touch.      Definitely, I think that EC with their 30+ program was the best option for me because you learn English and at the same time you       can expand your social network. I like it when I can learn and laugh at the same time.      Toronto is an amazing city, where you can enjoy the summer. The day is too short to do all the activities that the city offers you. If        I have another chance, I would like to come here again to enjoy the city and study too.” Cristian spent 29 weeks at EC Toronto and was able to reach the Advanced level. During his stay he attend not only our English classes, but also the Pathway course. The Pathway course is for students who want to study at university or college in Canada but do not have the English level they need. The University Pathway Programme provides you with the skills necessary to reach the required level to enter a Canadian university or college. With his level now, … Read more
