"I was expecting a little more."

Daniela Mamani Cortez, student fra Bolivia

The classes were in small groups in the winter season, I liked that. Just the half of the teachers are good, the other half they don’t know what are they doing. The location it’s really great, accesible and near to everything in downtown. They had few activities but each one were great. It’s a small school, so-so for ESL not for academic English.

"I loved studying in International Gateway Kelowna."

Maria Celina Deschamps, student fra Brasilien

Dear,
I would like to talk why my experience on International Gateway Kelowna wasn´t how I was waiting. I wanted to acquire more fluency, but I came back to Brazil disappointed. I don´t needed to have basics notions, as alphabet and vocabulary how animals names, etc. I would need to talk elementary phrases to quotidian. I liked to study with teens 16 years old, but I noted they levels was different, because the majority is from orient countries where the alphabet is very different. Well, I liked Gary and Carhie teachers and the staff too. All very, very professionals. I could needed to have more conversation, reading books, writing letters or texts. The method applied leave-me confused... I am a lawyer and I would need more challenge. Beyond reading books and writing texts, phrases by conversation in airport, in supermarket, in pharmacy, in stores, in street, etc. I´m sorry, and thank you.

Living with a Canadian family is one of the best ways for students to practice their English skills while learning about Canadian culture and lifestyle. IGK homestay families have a strong interest in welcoming international visitors and believe that hosting a student is an enriching and rewarding experience for both the family and for the student. Almost all IGK host families have pets; dogs, cats or both. Pets are treated as part of the family in Canada.

IGK’s on site Homestay Coordinators customize each placement with regards to special needs, requests, diet, hobbies, personalities and family dynamics. Kelowna is Canada’s #1 summer resort destination and as a result homestays are heavily booked from July 1-August 15 every year and special requests cannot be guaranteed during that time.
