Course description

You will experience how French is spoken and used in many real-life situations. Relevant and engaging lessons will develop your understanding of grammar, vocabulary, idioms and pronunciation, and allow you practise the four skills of everyday communication: reading, writing, speaking and listening.

At EC, progress is maximised as students are encouraged to learn by doing. Our task-based lessons focus on the active production of the language, promoting class participation and interaction between students. As your skills and confidence develop with support from your teachers, so too will your ability to listen, understand and respond quickly and effectively in either English or French. You will notice these improvements most of all when you take your new skills outside of the classroom and into everyday conversation!

Our teachers are qualified and experienced, and when it comes to creating lessons, they know what works. Classes are dynamic, engaging and motivating, designed to activate and build upon your strengths, whilst also giving targeted attention to your weaker areas. Relaxed and informal classroom environments create an encouraging atmosphere, to help build your confidence, realise your potential and advance towards fluency. Your teachers are trained to deliver on-going support, feedback and care throughout your time at EC. You will be taught by at least two teachers, exposing you to a variety of voices, improving your listening and boosting your vocabulary. We believe there is no substitute for authentic language so, in addition to text books, our teachers use resources taken from newspapers, TV, radio and the Internet. The authentic nature of these materials gives our students an appreciation of the richness of the language used in a variety of everyday contexts.

Course topics

Students learn through context and real situations that help them to learn in a natural way. Teachers supply new topics daily, and utilize textbooks, authentic materials and resources, including newspapers, videos and the internet, to show and teach English in an everyday context.

"An amazing time where I made lots of friends and learned a lot."

Nina Hamilton, student from USA

What I liked about my trip was the quality of teaching and the organization of the program. The teachers were always very engaged and were happy to answer questions and explain things more than once.

Everything was extremely well organized and was very fun to attend be a part of. I liked everything, and do not have anything in particular to say about what I did not like.

"It was the most incredible expererience I have ever had!!!"

Haike Bezares Martinez, student from Mexico

the location of the home stay was incredible, also my family of home stay was so good, warm and friendly with me including my housemates, with my housemates I am still in touch and they became very special people for me, also the facilities of the office of EC were always nice like the ones in Dawson college, the classes were amazing an the teacher Melissa became on of my favorite teachers in my life.

the activities were so good and entertaining and the staff also were so funny and nice , the perfect thing was the card of the metro, without that thing my experience wouldn´t be as enjoyable as it was. the last day of my course was so amazing!!! we all went to la ronde and that day I thing is one of my favourite days, since my first day everything was so perfect, I loved the independence the course give to you, I liked so much that part of independence cause for that I knew and visited a lot of things in Montreal, also the trip to Quebec was so good I wish I could've stayed more time there so I could went to more different places like Ottawa or Toronto, also the location of the office and the Dawson college were like so awesome!! I could go to every place I wanted.

all together I think the course of EC montreal was the most incredible, awsome, memorable experiene I have ever had, I met a lot of people and a lot of friends that I loved like they were part of my life since years, I will miss a lot that experience, and I hope that the next year I will go again for mor experiences.
