English course in Montreal
The largest bilingual city in the World!
Information on the English School in Montreal
Montreal is the largest bilingual city in the world, a place where the English and French have created a perfect balance. It is a beautiful city, safe, rich in culture and history and has recently been named “ UNESCO City of Design“. The centre offers cultural events, entertainment, shopping and nightlife of the highest quality … and these are just some of the aspects for which this city is so popular with millions of students each year.
The public transport system is reliable at all times of day and to any destination (and there are metro-stations and bus links right near the school!), so getting to your English lessons will be no problem at all! It’s brimming with culture and festivals, amazing food and lots of outdoor activities. Plus it has an enviable location – at the confluence of the St. Lawrence River and Ottawa Rivers – it’s within an easy distance of both the Laurentians and the Eastern Townships.
The school has 23 bright and spacious classrooms, and is equipped with free Wi-Fi. There are individual study areas, and 20 computer stations for the students to use at their discretion. The school is located in downtown Montreal in the main district known as Faubourg (which is a neighborhood full of shops, bars, shops and clubs).
Montreal has the highest number of restaurants per capita in Canada and the second highest in North America (after New York City)… make sure you taste the famous Montreal style bagel!
