Case Study 1

Name: Bruno Rabello
Length of Study: 5 months
Program: General English and TOEFL - 5 months
My Goal: to enter a university or college in Canada or the USA

Why I chose Connect:
I joined another school in Toronto before I came to Connect. It was terrible and I did not enjoy it. So I found Connect. It was amazing. The Connect teachers were so great. I started in Level 5 and finished Level 12. Then I took TOEFL. When I came to Canada, my TOEFL score was so bad. Now, my score is high enough to enter college so I am really grateful to Connect.

Length of Study: 8 months
Program: General English for 5 months; TOEIC and Business for 3 months
My Goal: I had a Working Holiday Visa and I wanted to work and study.

Why I chose Connect:
My English was not good so I needed to study English. I wanted to find a small class size and Connect was the best for me. Connect also had a Volunteer Program so I really wanted to volunteer while I studied.

I chose Connect because it was very friendly. They always answered my questions quickly. They really cared about me. I first joined for 3 months and then I extended for 6 months at Connect. It is so easy to change your schedule and course. I like this point.

Case Study 4

Name: Patrizio, Italy
Length of Study: 9 months
Program: General English and Intensive Conversation
My Goal: I am an immigrant to Canada and I need to improve my conversation ability to find a job.

Why I chose Connect:
Prima di frequentare una scuola di inglese avevo molti timori e perplessità. Affrontare un'esperienza del genere significa trovarsi a risolvere tutti i problemi che si possono incontrare durante una permanenza all'estero. Qui a Connect school of Languages ho trovato tutto quello di cui avevo bisogno ed anche di più. La professinalità degli insegnanti è eccezionale, essi sono preparati, chiari, disponibili, pazienti e abili a mettere chiunque a proprio agio. Oltre a questo la scuola offre una serie di sevizi didattici e extradidattici che danno la possibilità di divertirsi e di trovare molti amici che vengono da da ogni parte del mondo e con loro scoprire le loro culture, la cultura canadese, Toronto e dintorni.

Il mio inglese è migliorato in poco tempo nel modo più piacevole, utile e divertente, e posso dire di aver vissuto un'esperienza fantastica e indimenticabile.

Case Study 5

Name: Jan, Slovakia
Length of Study: 2 weeks
Program: General English Plus
My Goal:

Why I chose Connect:
I had a very good time at Connect School of Languages. Although I spent there just two weeks, I can see improvement in my ability to communicate in English. I feel much easier and more confident using English now. What I appreciate on Connect the most, is that they are very flexible in effort to build the language program, which fits to real student's needs. The another thing I really enjoyed is small class size. To have conversation class counting just two-three students is incomparable to "hardly getting a word ones in 10 minutes" in a class having 10-15 students. And finally I really enjoyed fine, open and friendly atmosphere which is typical for all of the school activities. Simply I had a great time, learning English together with people from all around the world at a fantastic place.
