First of all in my opinion, the location of this school was perfect . The school is located downtown in a small city called Burlington on the shore of Lake Ontario. It was really nice to cycle every day to school.
The school has 5 classes and I had the opportunity to take lessons with 4 different teachers. We were a maximum of 9 students per class. The teachers are really serious in their work but also in their friendships. They create a pleasant atmosphere in the classroom and give students confidence. My schedule was from 9.00 am to 2.10 pm everyday except on Friday from 9.00 am to 1.00 pm.
We had homework everyday. This helps you learn. We followed a textbook with articles very interesting. We had time to talk each morning about what we had done the afternoon before.
We also had the opportunity to socialize with different students outside of school. In my case, I went to a pub, then watched an outdoor movie and I went to a salsa dance party.
The only thing that I noticed negatively was the difference of level between the students. Some of them were in a lower level and I was surprised to have them in the same class as me. I guess their level were too high for the other classes.
Regarding my hosting, I was really lucky to meet Julie. Julie lives alone and we are around the same age, so our relationship was easy and friendly. She took good care of me. Over the week-ends, I went with her and another student kayaking in a lake.
I went to a BBQ one day to her friends house and another day to visit Niagara on Lake and Niagara Falls.
my english learning experience is really good, i really enjoyed learning to speak english at this school. they are super welcoming and very nice, the lessons are very easy to understand and, they use all means to make us understand the lessons and help us to talk. i am really happy to have attended this school really thank you.

It helped to improve my English. The teacher is a very respectful person. The place is cozy and the location is not bad. However, I really think that the fees don't suit the hours of the course. I found it a little expensive.

I enjoyed my stay in Burlington. I like English Encounters very much. The teachers were very cool and easy-going. If you had some questions, the teacher always helped you and explained everything. The sizes of the classes were very good I think (up to 8 people).
Burlington is a very nice city, where you can feel very safe. There are a lot of activities to do in your free time. You can visit the Niagara Falls, visit Toronto, the Hamilton Falls, a lot of Outlet Stores, or just stay in Burlington at the Lake Ontario and much more. I am very happy having been to English Encounters. I met a lot of great people from everywhere around the world, and I had the best teachers in my life.
