Real English
The school has tried and tested formula for teaching English trains you in how to use the ‘real’ English you need to communicate effectively in an English speaking environment. Teachers take themes from textbooks and bring them to life in the classroom. You will learn the English that native English speakers really use and how and when to use it.
While you develop a better understanding of English with EC, you will notice that your ability to communicate in English becomes more natural. Accessing the words you want to use becomes easier and so does your ability to listen and understand quickly. As you start thinking more in English (and using your new English skills) you will notice the changes in your level of fluency.
Topic-Based Lessons
At EC, we teach a range of topic-based lessons. Each lesson is accompanied by the language you need in order to effectively talk about the topic. This means the English skills you learn are taught within an easy to understand framework; the topics serve as clear and easy to follow examples. You can then work on applying your new skills simply, naturally and with great effect.
Support
Your teachers will provide the support and guidance you need to improve your English. Individual focus on your progress will be provided throughout your course. Teachers provide feedback, error correction and helpful instruction on all areas of your English.
Great Classroom Atmosphere
To create a good classroom environment, teachers make sure their classrooms have positive atmospheres. Classes have a warm, supportive environment which helps you to develop confidence in participating in all activities.
Authentic Materials
The benefit of having quality lesson plans and related curriculum resources to use in class is that it allows teachers more time to focus on what’s most important – teaching you! You can expect supplementary materials to be used alongside textbooks to perfectly complement your lessons.
Learn by Doing
One of the best ways to learn how to do something is to do it. English language success is achieved through practice, self-perfection and appropriate modifications. You will have the chance to be actively involved in all activities in your class!

Description of Local Area
Toronto is an extremely diverse, multi-cultural, and lively city. You’ll find an abundance of vibrant nightlife, stunning architecture, great museums, galleries & theatres, wonderful vintage stores, luxury shops and everything in between.
Description of Accommodation
Staying with a local family is both exciting and rewarding. Host families provide the best insight into how Canadian families live their day-to-day lives. This interaction with a family will help you communicate better and faster, and allow you to pick up words and nuances used in daily situations. Students are encouraged to participate in family activities and outings.
There is no typical homestay in Toronto. Homes may be single standing homes, apartments or multifamily homes. Living in a homestay will give you a great view of all the different cultures and ethnicities that Toronto has to offer.
Choose between a single or twin room. Each room is furnished with a bed, desk, and a closet. It is important that rooms and living areas are kept neat and tidy. You will also have access to a shared bathroom. Private bathrooms are also an option, upon availability. Internet access is available in the homestay, but usage may be limited.
Meal Description
Breakfast and dinner are provided daily by the homestay host. Hosts will prepare dinner, but students may be responsible for preparing their own breakfasts.
Lunch is not included in the adult homestay programme. The host will provide room in the fridge and pantry to store any food that students may purchase.
Host families make an effort to adjust the type of food offered to the tastes of the students and take religious beliefs into consideration when preparing meals. Vegetarians or people with food allergies should specify their dietary restrictions upon booking so this information can be shared with families prior to arrival.
Breakfast varies from family to family. It is typical for Canadians to have a quick, on-the-go breakfast such as toast and a coffee. Hosts are encouraged to offer students whatever the family typically eats. Students will eat whatever the family eats and help set the table or clear up after dinner.
Dinner time is usually around 7:30 pm, but families will inform the student of the time when they eat. Not all families will sit down and have dinner together every night. It is important that the student informs the host family beforehand should they be late or not having dinner. If a student misses dinner, they cannot take it for lunch the next day, since lunch is not included in the homestay programme.
