"I totally recommend you guys to study here and try to make this a segway experience here in Halifax, Canada. As a UBP student, I have the opportunity to improve my English, grammar, writing reading, and also citation and reference styles. To me this is a great experience to learn about other cultures and whatever styles, different from Mexico (because I am from Mexico).Take your time and come here to Halifax Language Institute of Canada because it's going to be great for your life. It will change the way you think about life."

"The teacher's here are very helpful. One thing [that you should do], you should be willing to ask questions. As long as you ask questions, they will try to give you a satisfying answer. Also, here you can find people from different nationalities. You can learn about more than just one culture, like Colombia, Brazil, France, Spain, and many other countries. So, it's a chance for you to meet people from other parts of the world."
