|  | Hi! My name is Su. Thanks to working holiday program, I came here with work permit. Here, I can learn how to speak English with native speakers and moreover I can get chances to work with them. Especially Toronto is a multi-cultural city, so you can go see a ton of different cultures in one city. The reason why I chose GEOS is because of scale. Frankly, my school is not so big but because of this advantage teachers can concentrate on their students and their classes. And we have a very friendly atmosphere like a big family. Everyone knows each other and always hangs out together and exchanges their cultures. Every student is from very various countries and they start understanding more about other countries. Since I've been here, I've improved a lot, not only English but also my view of seeing the other cultures. Don't miss the chance to study and experience life here in Toronto!

|  | I'm Richard from Venezuela. I've been in Toronto for approximately 8 month. At the time of my arrival to GEOS my first impression was that it was a small school. However it turned out to be a good thing, everybody in GEOS is willing to help, it is like a big family, you get to know most of the students, no matter what level you or they are. Moreover the classes are really interactive; I believe I've reached an English level that I didn't expect. Toronto is an amazing city. I arrived in summer, a season when you can find many different festivals, meet new people, new places and discover details of a variety of cultures. Also Toronto is a good option if you are interested in nightlife, plenty of places it offers numerous alternatives. I define myself as a food lover and Toronto gave me the opportunity to taste an enormous variety of flavours and food from different countries that otherwise I would have never even imagined that they existed.

I thank GEOS for this memorable experience.

|  | I've been here twice because the first time was great experience so that I wanted to come back and see old friends again. And did it! Also it's the perfect city to spend the summer even if you're underage. In my case, I went to Queen's Quay and Dundas Square. At there, I met new people from each country. Moreover, you have beaches if you miss the pool. Go to Woodbine Beach and play football or maybe go to Toronto Island to stay in the beach or ride bicycles. So many options! It's impossible to get bored and you have activities with the academy. For example go-karting or go to the cinema every Tuesday (it's only $5). Trust me, it's going to be the best summer here in Toronto with GEOS.

|  | Hello! My name is Diogo Ferronato and I am from Brazil. I studied at GEOS for 8 months, starting from the lowest level and working my way up to the highest level of this school. It was a great pleasure to have been at this place where I had an opportunity to get to know people from all parts of world as well as their cultures, lifestyles, thoughts and much more. When I made the decision to come to Canada to study English I knew that I would come not only to learn a new language, but also to experience amazing things that I had not lived before. My program was for study and work, which was the best choice because I got the experience of learning a language as a student in the class and I could learn, practice and know how real life in another country is through my job. GEOS is an excellent English school which provided help to me when I asked for it and which has trained professionals to assist you at all times. I must say thank you to all teachers for their patience, disposition and understanding. You did a wonderful job. I am really glad to have achieved my goals and satisfied to have fulfilled the purpose of my trip. Thanks a lot GEOS!
|  | Hi everyone! My name is Larissa and I'm from Brazil! I arrived in Toronto speaking little English, then went into the geos at level one and quickly went to the second. I realized that my English was progressing, I could communicate better in my homestay and on the street in situations of everyday life! I came to study in just 3 months geos, but I want to stay longer, because the school is very good and very competent teachers! I am a bit shy to speak English because I do not know the language very well, but my friends always help me in class, the exercises in groups and / or the materials that I do not understand! and now I communicate with them easier and less shame, and more interesting is that I knew them all 'in English,' I think our personality changes a bit when talking in another language, I believe I could show a bit of me all class friends! is very good you can make friends from other countries, with another culture and another way of thinking, so you can grow in life, I think a great learning! I think the proper method that uses the geos, have tests with frequency is good for students studying to be bullied into giving their best on tests and also to know how they are progressing or how much they need to improve! geos also offers a variety of activities outside school, which makes the lessons more cool! has activities outside of class time also participated in community work that was fun, I could train my English with Canadians and met people from other schools, which I kept in touch and help me when I have doubts in English! I hope to learn even more in geos! Thank you to all teachers and friends!

|  | Hello guys. My name is Leonardo Luiz Damico and I'm from Brazil. I quit job and stopped my study in University for came to Canada. I decided to change my life and know others cultures, and learning English. Before Canada I did know anything about English, I did know some words and "what's your name? How are you?" and nothing else. When I arrived in Canada from the beginning it was very magical to me, all very different and beautiful. It was quite difficult in the beginning because I didn't speak English anything. So, when I start my study in GEOS everything started to change, I meet many friends and with speed I started to speak English. I'm sure about this is the best time of my life, I'll never forgot. Thank you for everyone, Thank you Teachers

|  | Hello! My name is Patricia. I'm from Brazil and I'm a lawyer specialized in Maritime Law. I decided to study abroad to improve my English and to quickly get the fluency in this language, because it is very important in my job's area. I'm really happy have chosen at GEOS. This school is serious and committed to student's learning. It's one school that provides integration between people from different nationalities and cultures. Also, it's provides daily activities that make the English learning something enjoyable and funny. In these activities, students have the chance to know Toronto's city, Canadian culture and to make great friends, of course! At GEOS, you learn real English. It's amazing how you can feel the results day by day, because this many students, like me, opted to extend the course and spend more time studying here. It's important to mention too that here, students have a chance to measure your performance on the studies and go up levels. It happened with me and it is extremely rewarding! It is one form of motivation for students overcoming their challenges. Of this way, we can feel the worry and the commitment that GEOS has for their students. Dedicated teachers and attentive staff make GEOS not just a school, but one dear family that I have the honor to be a part of. GEOS offers much more than academic learning. It offers a unique and unforgettable life experience. It is exactly what I am living here for, a wonderful life experience and that will provide me an advance in my professional career. I just have thanks to all the GEOS Team. Thank you so much for everything!
|  | Hi, My name is Mira and I'm from Slovakia. This is my 7th week at GEOS and I'm looking forward to 6 more. I like it here because of teachers who help everyone and they never seem to be annoyed by your questions, eve though sometimes your questions are as far from topic as you can get. Other thing that is great here are students themselves. It's really interesting to see so many different nationalities in one place. Everyone is trying to help you, make new friends. You can get lots of international contacts this way. I would say, that if you want to learn English, there is no better way than leave home for a while, go some place new, speak and learn. For that is GEOS ideal.
|  | I'm Gijae Byun, I'm living Toronto now. I was GEOS student to learn English. When I came to Canada, I looked for some schools. But I didn't want to speak Korean. That's why I selected GEOS. When I went to GEOS, there were just 7 Korean. So I tried to speak English well. And there are many activities. Specially volunteering is the best program. If you go to volunteering to sell 50:50 tickets, you can talk with foreigners naturally. And you can watch NBA games or hockey games. I had never watched hockey games before. But when I went to volunteering I watched the hockey game that was so exciting. I'm sure it should be good experience. Sometime we had a potluck that people bring their own food. So there were many kinds of food what is from other counties I have never had this kind of lunch before. It was amazing. Because I could try Saudi food, Mexican food, French food and some strange food what I never tried before. And we could be more familiar at that time. When I came to Toronto, I lived in homestay. The homestay family members are Canadian. At the first time, I couldn't speak English. But they waited that I spoke. If I couldn't understand their speaking, they tried to explain about that. They like music. So they have some instruments that are the guitars and the drum. The homestay son taught me to play the guitar. Sometimes I played street hockey with homestay son's friends. It was so funny. Before Christmas we woke up in the early morning to by cheap Christmas tree. And we made the Christmas tree together. After then we ate some traditional Christmas food. At the Christmas day they gave presents that are a hat and a cup to me. Anyway I really enjoyed my homestay, It was good experience to me. Now I share the room with a Mexican guy who has lived for 5 years in Canada. He is very a nice guy and I can try to speak English. If you come to Toronto, you can meet many people who are from different counties. It can help to understand another culture. If you like to learn about new culture, why don't you come to Toronto.

|  | To be part of GEOS family has been a great experience for me, and I could feel that my English improved every day. I like their policy that forbids the students from speaking in their mother tongue. The teachers have lots of experience, they are very approachable and they always try to make classes fun and also productive. Since I have started studying English at GEOS, I feel very comfortable about my progress, even though I've just studied here for 2 months. Particularly, my speaking skill and listening skill are much better than before. The English classes are well-structured and the teachers are very supportive.

|  | I came from Czech republic to Toronto for eight weeks to improve my English. It was the main reason, because it is important for my future major. It is my first time in Canada and I was looking forward to explore Ontario and Qubec, and I wanted to learn about Canada culture. If you want to enjoy a great holiday,I think Toronto is the best place, because here, there are many interesting places like Royal museum, Wonderland and Toronto islands. Every weekend you can see many exciting festivals. It is great. I became a member in Geos language school. I am glad that I decided to register with this company. When I came to GEOS, I was little surprised, because everybody is so polite, friendly and I feel good here. I have two great teachers and I have schoolmates from many foreign countries. So you can learn a lot about their cultures and you can make friendships with them. I have to leave Toronto in three weeks, but I would like to stay longer, because I spent a great time here.
|  | I am here in GEOS to improve my English skills and also enjoy multi cultural city life and learn about them in Toronto. Here in GEOS with wonderful teachers and classmates, my English improved better than my expectation. In class, I did not only learn English but also I learnt a lot of details about different cultures. I realized that all the cultures in the world have some similar customs. Everyday at the lunch time I learnt new meal from different countries. In GEOS, in the class, teachers do not use only our textbooks directly, they create different teaching techniques in order to take our attention to the important points. In GEOS, you do not have to discover anything by yourself because you are in a compact school. From first day, the staff make you feel comfortable and they are very trustful. You know that if you have any kind of problem or need to ask something, they are ready any with honesty. In brief, I have been here for 6 months and I am going back to Turkey this week. I will carry to Turkey all my Toronto experiences and honestly I will carry this wonderful GEOS family with staff, teachers and classmates!
|  | Hi my name is Sylvain and I come from France for 1 month in Toronto in order to improve my English. At first I didn't really want to come because I thought it would be really boring to study during my vacation. But I was wrong. I spent an amazing time in Toronto. I met wonderful people and spent a really good time with them. Toronto is a multi-cultural city with a good atmosphere. There are many things to do every single day and big festivals almost every week. It's also close to the USA. GEOS booked a trip to New York for me with some Spanish friends. It was so nice. GEOS is a great school and the staff are really nice. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to stay 10 more days!Thank you everyday!
|  | How can I consider my experience with international students in GEOS? This experience has been excellent and amazing because GEOS has many tools for improving English as a second language in their students. First, GEOS has an excellent academic staff. This is a big and important experience and uses many pedagogic strategies. These strategies permit them to improve the speaking, reading, writing and listening sources in their students. I was able to improve this and I feel that my English is improving day by day. Second, GEOS offers many cultural and social activities that are a great component for our learning process. The student can know many interesting places and cultural components about Toronto and Canada. This aspect is a good strategy for our learning process. Third, GEOS offers the opportunity to know about cultural literacy around the world. When the students live with Canadian homestay, they make sure there are different groups in class and travel groups. This is an excellent opportunity for knowing between us and improves our English. I am sure GEOS is an excellent opportunity for studying English in an interesting immersion process. Enjoy this opportunity in your life and Good Luck
|  | Hi, my name is Augustine and I am from Switzerland. I have taken a sabbatical year to come to Canada to improve my English. I have been studying at GEOS for 10 weeks now and I really enjoyed my time here! The teachers and the staff are great and always here for you when you need help and I have met a lot of amazing people in the school. Studying at GEOS is a wonderful experience because you meet people from the whole world and learn a lot about different cultures. For me it is not only a school, it is more like a family. We do activities together, go partying during weekends and share a lot of good moments. I only have one week left at GEOS, and even if I am staying in Toronto for 3 more months I am going to miss everyone and the school atmosphere! I also really like Toronto so I am going to enjoy my last 3 months because like we say, Time flies when you have fun! Thank you everyone for everything!
|  | Everyone is looking for something that they like or love to make their life happy. If you want to enjoy the nature, you will find it in some country. If you want to find science and technology, you will find it in somewhere else. If you are looking for the culture, you will find a lot of cultures in other countries. And so on. It is very hard to find the most beautiful things that are natures, sciences, technologies, cultures, etc. In one place, but you will find all of them in Toronto, Canada. I cannot describe it because it is like a piece of heaven on the Earth. I have spent the most enjoyable moments of my life with my dear wife and little daughters in Toronto. I got a chance to make a friendship with people who are from different countries and study with them at GEOS. This is amazing school where we can have a great time and learn English from good teachers, materials and activities. They teach us how to use it smoothly in our life. Feel it and try it!
|  | Hello. I am Ema and from Osaka, Japan. I am enjoying to being here in GEOS because everyone is friendly and funny. I have joined some school activities before and it was exciting and the classes are the most enjoyable for me. I have good teachers and classmates. My teachers understand how much I want to improve my English skills so they always try to make it better and they do their best for us. My classmates have their own opinions and cultures so it is quite interesting for me to discuss with them. Therefore, my English skills are improving with enjoying classes. I love it! Yeah, it is the best!!
|  | My name is Juan Fernando Agon and I came from Colombia to Toronto for 9 months to learn English. It was my first time in Canada and it was awesome. I met many people from different countries and I had fun with them. When I came here, I just knew to say Hi, but now I have improved my English skills and I think I will go back to my country very gratefully. Finally, Thanks to all staff who helped me so much!
|  | Living in a foreign country, speaking a different language and facing so many new things at the same time is not that easy. That is why I think that the school choice must be done very carefully. Well, I can say that I have made the right choice! Studying at GEOS was an incredible experience. Wonderful teachers, helpful staff, nice environment and, the most important, excellent classes. At GEOS you really learn English, you keep in touch with people from all around the world and have the opportunity to study on a small classroom. All those things combined make GEOS an amazing place to study in Canada. I honestly do not think that the school has to be a place only for studies. Other very important way to improve your English is talking with your classmates and hanging out with them. Beside classes, GEOS staff provides you the opportunity to explore Toronto. It is very easy to discover that Toronto is a wonderful city, with lots of different things to do!
|  | Hi my name is Young Soo, and I am from Korea. I have been here 7months. Now I am doing my internship at GEOS Toronto. When I first came here, I had no idea what I was doing, what I was going to do. Everything was very awkward for me. However as time goes by I was getting fun and interesting things. Not only I made a lot of friends but also I lived with my best French friend. That experience was really good for me. In addition, all teachers and all staffs always make me happy and feel so comfortable.When I got hard times they always give me some good advice. At this time I do not want to go back my country If I can get a job here. I am really enjoying and improving my English. Thank you for everything.
