"I was expecting a little more."

Daniela Mamani Cortez, studente da Bolivia

The classes were in small groups in the winter season, I liked that. Just the half of the teachers are good, the other half they don’t know what are they doing. The location it’s really great, accesible and near to everything in downtown. They had few activities but each one were great. It’s a small school, so-so for ESL not for academic English.

"I loved studying in International Gateway Kelowna."

Maria Celina Deschamps, studente da Brasile

Dear,
I would like to talk why my experience on International Gateway Kelowna wasn´t how I was waiting. I wanted to acquire more fluency, but I came back to Brazil disappointed. I don´t needed to have basics notions, as alphabet and vocabulary how animals names, etc. I would need to talk elementary phrases to quotidian. I liked to study with teens 16 years old, but I noted they levels was different, because the majority is from orient countries where the alphabet is very different. Well, I liked Gary and Carhie teachers and the staff too. All very, very professionals. I could needed to have more conversation, reading books, writing letters or texts. The method applied leave-me confused... I am a lawyer and I would need more challenge. Beyond reading books and writing texts, phrases by conversation in airport, in supermarket, in pharmacy, in stores, in street, etc. I´m sorry, and thank you.

Almost all IGK host families have pets; dogs, cats or both. Pets are treated as part of the family in Canada.
