An important part of your student experience

Engaging in various activities such as sports and arts while studying abroad offers a multitude of benefits. It enhances language acquisition and fluency. Immersing oneself in activities necessitates effective communication in the target language. This real-world application of language skills not only bolsters vocabulary but also improves listening and speaking proficiency. 

Participating fosters social integration and personal growth. It allows language students to connect with locals and fellow students, breaking down cultural barriers and building a diverse network of friends. These activities can boost self-esteem, teamwork, and discipline, which are transferable life skills. Student Activities not only complement language studies but also contribute to a well-rounded and enriching international experience.

我们专业,关爱和高素质的教师团队将会付出成倍努力,帮助学生达到语言学习目标。在课堂之外,学生通过精彩的户外实践和郊游活动体验新斯科舍省丰富的文化,悠久的历史和令人惊叹的自然景观。
