what are students saying?
“I tried to be active and use all the resources available to me at the ELP. I am thankful I used these resources, like volunteering—it got me over the nerves of speaking English and encouraged me to speak with Canadians.”
“I think being in a multicultural city is the best place to study. We are all trying to learn about each other. I think this is the advantage. I’ve learned so much about other cultures.”
“The days that I spent at the ELP made me a more interactive person. Now I feel that my way of thinking has changed dramatically and positively. I feel that everything I am interested in doing is a possibility and it deserves to be pursued.”
“I love Canada and the University of Toronto has an excellent reputation. I had a great experience. The student diversity is perfect and the staff members at the ELP are very welcoming.”
