COLLABORATION. CONNECTION. FRIENDSHIP. WELCOME TO OUR CANADIAN CENTERS! Your ELS Center in Toronto or Vancouver is so much more than a place to learn English. From the moment you arrive, you become integrated into student life, making it easy to meet and make friends with Canadian and other international students and actively engage in the many activities available to you. ELS creates many opportunities for you to come into contact with a wide range of cultures and experiences outside the classroom. Your ELS Center staff also helps you adjust to living in Canada, exposing you to Canadian culture both in and outside the classroom.

Daily life at your ELS Center not only provides you with a great opportunity to practice English with other students from around the world but also helps you develop a sense of independence and self-confidence.

Accessible and supportive teachers and staff whose focus is on you

“Among the many surprising things I’ve learned in the first year of my ESL teaching career is how far the impact we have on students extends beyond language acquisition.

Helping students transform fear and doubt into confidence, encouraging them to see the possible, that’s really what I do at ELS.” Paul Duke ELS Instructor, VANCOUVER

Being away from your home country, especially if it is for the first time, brings with it excitement, adventure, discovery and self-awareness. It can also bring the challenges that come from being in an unfamiliar place, apart from family and friends. The faculty and staff at the ELS Toronto and Vancouver Centers are warm, friendly, welcoming people who understand that you are a person as well as an English language student. Their goal is to ensure your success, offering care, patience and diligence.

“We are from Brazil and we were looking for an experience abroad. Vancouver is a perfect city and there are a lot of options for tourism. The weather is nice and you have the chance to know different people. My kids could easily take the bus and walk.

They loved their homestay parents. The house is very comfortable and they had a great time with them. They loved all the activities and the staff! They loved the teachers!

We are so glad to have this experience here in Vancouver.

We hope to come back soon!”

Daniela, BRAZIL Parent of former ELS Youth Program students

STUDENTS AND PARENTS ALL AGREE: ELS WORKS. “The school that I have been studying in is ELS Language Centers. I love my school. The teachers are very helpful when you don’t understand something. The students are also very friendly. I have many friends at ELS and I really enjoy going to classes and having lunch. I really like that the school has different activities like bowling or when we go together to go to a park or beach. You can make more friends there, I love it!

I would love to come back to Canada one day and spend more time enjoying the city with my sister and friends. I hope to one day be able to live in Canada so I can enjoy all it has to offer and see all it has to see!

I feel very grateful for this great opportunity and very happy. I’m enjoying every single one of my days here!”

Maria Elena, MEXICO Former ELS student “In 1976 I myself was a student at ELS in Oakland, California, and since then, the English language has become an important part of my daily life, helping me a lot in my duties as a doctor.

That is why, when my kids Carlos and Ana Grecia were the right age to leave Mexico in order to learn English I did not hesitate to send them to ELS because I knew the quality and the prestige of your school.

My wife and I are happy to have left in your hands the English learning of our youngsters.

You did a very good job because they both speak and write the language very well and it is helping them in their professional careers. Please receive our appreciation!”

Dr. Arriola, Mexico

Former ELS student and parent

of Academic Pathway students

“I have chosen Vancouver to continue my study and hope my dreams come true. After spending two years in Vancouver I can say that it is a perfect city for students. I had a great host family who helped me with my language, which is the most important thing. The Activities and Administrative staff are awesome and friendly people and they have helped me with stuff that I needed that was not even related to the school.

Thank you activities and administrative staff!

The teachers were the most important part of my experience. They are the people that motivated me, encouraged me to work harder until I reached my goals and then pushed me further when I procrastinated. They are great teachers with great experience. I started in Level 102 and I made it to Level 112 studying in the English for Academic Purposes program, which is a really useful program for those who want to go to university, as I do. The amount of homework was reasonable and useful and it has helped me to improve my English. I am thankful to this school; they made my experience unforgettable and meaningful. I would recommend it for everybody who wants to improve their language and have a great time.”

Tariq, SAUDI ARABIA ELS graduate

“The ELS activities are so good, we went to a Canucks hockey game and the Capilano Suspension bridge. The staff at ELS are the best staff of the world. My teachers here in Vancouver are very attentive, they like to teach and they are respectful. I ‘m learning so much with them. The program is good, we have a mixture of grammar and vocabulary class, this is awesome for me. Every day we have homework; this is fantastic for your English to get better. This trip is awesome, I hope that I always remember all I’m experiencing here.”

Juliano, BRAZIL Former ELS General English student

“I am a student at Douglas College. But because my English skills were not good enough to take some academic classes, I had to spend some time studying at ELS. Every class helped me. Some classes improved both my reading and writing skills and others gave good opportunities to practice my speaking skills. I know learning a new language is exhausting, but if you can speak one more language, it not only can help you communicate with people who come from other countries, but also find a job easier. ELS teachers were good at teaching and communicating, and they helped me deal with problems and cope with stresses. I really appreciated them and I really recommend learning at ELS.” Kayo, JAPAN ELS graduate Current Douglas College student

“I can’t say anything except thank you for all the help you have given me, and the nice way you have of treating your students!”

Mohammed, SAUDI ARABIA ELS graduate

ELS CLASSES AND LEVELS: HERE’S EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. l All ELS programs provide placement testing for assignment to one of our first 10 proficiency levels (Levels 101-110). l Depending

on the program, each level consists of 20 to 30 class hours per week (each class is 50 minutes) of teacher-led instruction in listening, speaking, reading and writing. l All

sessions are four weeks in duration.

l At the end of each session, students successfully meeting the requirements for that level will progress to the next ELS level and immediately begin the new session. l You

can begin your ELS Canada program on any one of the 13 starting dates each year and choose to study for any number of four-week sessions. l Students completing Level 112 of the intensive English for Academic Purposes program will receive our Level 112 Certificate of Completion, accepted as proof of English proficiency for admission at many Canadian universities and colleges.

CORE CLASSES The ELS curriculum’s core classes include all of the vital building blocks of English language learning. Levels may be grouped into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Masters to allow students of similar abilities and interests to study together, but each student is tracked and evaluated according to his or her specific level.

Structure and Speaking Practice: includes instruction in speaking, listening, grammar and more Language Technology Center: technology-supported learning allows you to concentrate on your individual learning needs and objectives Vocabulary Enrichment: this systematic approach to vocabulary study helps you learn, use and remember new vocabulary Reading and Writing: concentrates on the development of reading comprehension as well as writing fluency and accuracy

SKILLS ENHANCEMENT CLASSES Skills Enhancement Classes are available to all Masters level students enrolled in our General English program and English for Academic Purposes program; they are also available to General English students at all levels in the afternoon. Skills Enhancement Classes can focus on academic skills such as Listening and Note-Taking, Advanced Academic Writing, or Idioms, or topics such as Current Events.

Offerings vary by location.

ELS offers 12 levels of classes, designed to address the needs of students across the spectrum of English proficiency – from those coming to ELS with the most basic of skills to students with greater fluency who are just steps away from entering a college or university program. The 12 levels build upon one another like a pyramid, relying on the foundation of skills learned at lower levels and moving upward in complexity as the levels increase.

Options for higher education become available to you as you move up the pyramid, providing you with opportunities to put your newly acquired skills to work in ways that help you reach your goal of admission to a college or university.

With every level you progress up the pyramid, you are closer to reaching the pinnacle of the ELS program: A number of Canadian universities and colleges accept graduation from an advanced level of ELS as meeting the English language requirement for admission.

In combining a universal museum of cultures with that of natural history, the ROM offers a truly unique experience to audiences from around the world. The ROM was recently renovated by world-renowned architect Daniel Libeskind to become one of the most remarkable buildings in Toronto.

The new structure is called “The Crystal” due to its crystal-like formation inspired by the ROM’s own gem and mineral collection.

Day Trips and Weekends Away: Day trips to Niagara Falls and multiday tours of Ottawa/Montreal/Quebec, New York City, Chicago and Boston are popular weekend student activities.

You can travel up the CN Tower for 346 meters in the world’s highest glass-floored elevator.

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE. The place you call home while studying with ELS plays a very important part in your experience of living abroad.

Because every student has his or her own needs and preferences, we offer options in living accommodations to ensure that you are comfortable and safe and feel at home, regardless of the type of housing you select.

Homestays Both ELS Centers in Canada offer homestay accommodations with an English-speaking host family. ELS host families are carefully selected to ensure they provide a pleasant and safe “home away from home” for their student guests. Some students find that living with a host family can help them learn English faster, while experiencing Canadian customs and culture firsthand. Homestay students often develop cherished relationships with their hosts – friendships that can last a lifetime.

Apartment Housing If you prefer a more independent lifestyle, you may want to live in an apartment near your ELS Center. Apartment costs and conditions vary widely depending on the location. Some ELS locations have special relationships with local apartment providers that welcome ELS students, families, married couples or executive clients. Your ELS Center can advise you on finding a furnished apartment to suit your preference and budget.

Your local ELS authorized Counselor can provide you with detailed information on housing options.
