English Language and Canadian Culture is a unique and remarkably effective program. We give our participants the opportunity to develop communication skills as they develop a working knowledge of the Canadian cultural context. Our participants learn to understand Canadian attitudes and values and they learn to use their understanding of the Canadian context to decipher jokes, jargon, and slang as well as to communicate their thoughts and wishes effectively. And they learn how to continue to improve their English skills even after they leave our program.
