Q&A - Questions about English courses and schools in Calgary

I am quoting a course for my wife and I am getting the cost in C$. I am from Mexico, what does C$ mean?

“If you connect from Mexico, the system will provide you with the price in local currency (C$ stands for Canadian dollars) and its equivalent in Mexican pesos.”

Rubén De Haro, LanguageCourse.Net - Apr 15, 2024

I am Peruvian and I am 17 years old, can I travel alone by plane to Calgary?

“Some airlines allow people aged 12 years and older to travel alone without adult supervision. When a child has reached this minimum age to travel alone without the procedures for unaccompanied minors, the airline does not require evidence of parental permission to travel alone. If the child has a passport, he or she can even travel internationally.
Obviously, this can vary depending on the nationality of the student, the country of destination and the airline, so it is best to contact the airline first for accurate and up-to-date information.”

Rubén De Haro, LanguageCourse.Net - Apr 25, 2023

I want to book a course but I don't have a card to pay the first payment, what can I do?

“When you make your booking on our website you will see all the payment options we offer. You can choose another option, such as PayPal or wire transfer.”

Rubén De Haro, LanguageCourse.Net - Mar 22, 2023

I am looking for English classes for my 6 year old daughter.

“The schools we work with in Calgary do not accept students that young. The minimum age of acceptance is 15 years.”

Rubén De Haro, LanguageCourse.Net - Feb 17, 2023

How can I find out the course schedule?

“In Calgary we work with several schools. The schedules of their respective courses can be found within the course descriptions that you will find within the profiles of each of them.”

Don't just take our word for it

100,000+ happy clients since 1999

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.

The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.

I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.

You're just great, doing a fantastic job. I'll be back in a couple of weeks and be booking my next stay abroad with you again (as always).

I was really surprised with your assistance to me, the service was amazing, following me on every step, thank you!

The service received has been fantastic. All doubts and issues were solved quickly and effectively. An exceptional service.

Your service was excellent . You helped me to choose exactly the right course for me .

I had excellent support with the school choice and booking. I was grateful knowing that if a problem arose, I had someone to liaise with the school and sort it out. Many thanks

Your service was excellent, really following up and holding my hand.! My older step-brother used your service a few years ago to study Spanish in Salamanca and Granada and we found LanguageCourse.Net so helpful then as well.

I genuinely rate the enrolment service five stars as it exceeded my expectations - everything that was booked worked out flawlessly, and queries were responded to with minimal delay. Ana Carolina was great - thanks!

Everything was perfect. Fast and efficient help. Kindness and support from start to finish. Thanks a lot!

Excellent support. In particular, Ana Carolina is amazing and goes out of her way to help. I have called upon Ana in the past and will do so in the future. I am genuinely grateful. Thank you Ana!

Sabine was FANTASTIC! Very complete communication all along the process!

Ana Carolina dos Santos was amazing. Always kind and available, she solved all my doubts.

Sawsan was amazing throughout the booking process. Was extremely helpful and attentive and professional.

Just keep up the good work. The organization is excellent, so that even less experienced travellers would feel ok to come to China. I also felt really good in the host family, they were really great!
