Positive aspects of school
"Great facilities in a classic old brick building with many classrooms, bathrooms, and gathering areas."
Negative aspects
"The digitized study materials, accessible on student cell phones and laptops, were not easily accessed and were cumbersome to use in class. I would prefer to have a book to work with."

"We love Quebec and can see ourselves returning."
Accommodation
"We opted out of the homestay after one night. Public transportation was too time-consuming so we rented a car. With the car, it was still a 30-minute drive. So, we returned the car and applied the rental savings to get a hotel room 5 minutes walk from the school."

"I chose an intensive week-long private programme and there was a little confusion at the beginning (I was put in a group). I think this type of learning process may be a bit unusual and if/when I return, I would do things a bit differently - i.e. I would be a bit more direct (possibly in advance) about my goals. Overall, it was a good experience."

"I was tremendously happy with my choice of going to Bouchereau. It was centrally located, the teachers were delightful, there were many fantastic international students (most of the students were from Switzerland and Colombia... that was sort of weird), and the host family that I was allotted to live with, couldn't have been more perfectly selected to suit my personality. Thanks a bunch!"
