English Encounters is a school which provides proximity between the teachers and students creating a very familiar and comfortable environment. The teachers are prepared and attentives, they are also very friendly people. There are students from all over the world what makes your learning more and more interesting. The city of Burlington is very safe, calm and beautiful. The school is located downtown, so you're close from everything you need like bus stations, restaurants, banks and supermakets

The school is awesome, has a very good location, is downtown Burlington near the Lake Ontario. The city is very calm and quite, is perfect to have a good stay and improve your English, and also is near Toronto, just one hour by train. In the school we have a very close relationship with the students and teachers even the principal too.

El sitio es un pueblo de 100000 habitantes por lo que las actividades que se pueden hacer son limitadas y la escuela ampoco ofrece facilidades de entretenimiento. Toda actividad que se realice a traves de la escuela debe tener un mínimo de 4 estudinantes disponibles. Pero en la escuela hay 15 estudiantes máximo y es difícil encontrarlos. En el periodo en el que estuve había un monton de hispano hablantes por lo que eso de inmersión linguistica, cero. El alojamiento en familia genial.

If you are looking for a calm and comfy place to study english, English Encounters School was made for you. Excellent and skilled teachers, modern instalations, small groups, nice students... Studying in Canada is more than learn a new language, is the opportunity to be in touch with different people and culture from all over the world. I really recommend this school.
Reply from English Encounters : Thank you very much for your review, Augusto, and it was a pleasure teaching you! Next time you come to Canada, don't forget to visit us!

English Encounters in Burlington, Ontario is a very personal language school. Because of the small classes the contact to all the teachers is very close. The teachers are all different, so every teachers has it's own focus on special skills like grammar, vocabulary building, everyday english an so on. My accommodation was beautiful and my host mother helped me a lot. In total I recommend this school 100%. I really enjoyed my time and improved my english substantially!

EE ist genau die richtige Schule für dich, wenn: a) du keinen Bock auf dauerhaftes Großstadt-Gebrumme (Toronto) hast, dir am Wochenende aber ne schnelle Verbindung in eben diesen Trubel wünschst, b) du Bock auf einen hohen Multi-Kulti-Faktor hast, c) du nicht in der letzten Reihe eines überfüllten Klassenzimmers pennen willst, sondern dich lieber mit Wenigen (Kleingruppe) in der Englischen Sprache üben möchtest möchtest. Solltest "du" dich jetzt angesprochen fühlen ... Go for it & have fun!

I really loved the familiar atmosphere at school and enjoyed to meet new friends from all over the world. Burlington is located between Toronto & Niagara Falls. Away from the big city rush you can enjoy the wonderful Waterfront Town in all seasons. You can visit Toronto by train very convenient in just 40 minutes. I had a great experience, learned a lot and had much fun.I would recommend this school to my friends.
Reply from English Encounters : Thank you, Christine, for studying with us and recommending us! We also think Burlington is a great place to learn English!

I attended a 5-week course, with morning and private afternoon classes. It was great! Teachers give students a lot of useful and interesting study material, that I'm still using! Lessons allow studens to get to know new people from all over the World. The weekly study package is a great idea to practise more at home. Sometimes students do their homework together at school and this is another fantastic opportunity to help or be helped. My English has improved a lot. I recommend this school!
Reply from English Encounters : Thank you, Francesca! It was wonderful teaching you and seeing your English improve! Take care and come back someday!
