The teachers seem to love their job, they know how to spark our interest. And also, the groups are small so we have the chance to speak a lot and know each other better.

Great teachers, very well organized school, excellent leisure activities (for only a few extra dollars), very good location, free internet access. I can really recommend this school! Booking over 'languagecourse' in Germany can also be recommended - easy, nice contact, no problems.
Visiting this school during winter time might be better for improving your english because of smaller classes.

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
If you are going to be a little time (I was only two weeks), if you come to Toronto on a Friday morning and / or they come back on Monday you can be useful one or two more weekends to visit New York, Chicago, Niagara falls, Quebec, Montreal Otawa, Algonquin Park...
Other comments
The school is very well placed, in full center. The school is small enough for what the environment is family, there are sufficient activities, but not too much. It has enough computers for Internet, but it doesn't have programs multimedia to study.
