The 3 Best Places to Study ESL in Canada!

Hello,

I’m Steve, the CEO & founder of Do Education. I’m Canadian & I want to help you! I’ve decided that I’m going to start writing a blog about important information, helpful hints & useful tips so that I can make every International ESL students experience in Canada the best. I’m proud of Canada & we as Canadians welcome everyone to our country. I created this a blog to encourage everyone to leave comments about my posts. Come back every few days to learn something new!

Today is a wonderful day! I currently travel between South Korea & Canada for our business. My wife & I have an International ESL Placement business. (Uhagwon in Korean). I’m currently in Seoul, hosting some seminars right now about upcoming summer programs. After speaking with hundreds of caring parents, I have noticed that the first questions that I always get are: Where should my child study? or Where should I study? or What city is safe for my child? All of these questions are very important.

Now, I’m going to reveal THE 3 BEST PLACES TO STUDY IN CANADA.

I’m going to name the BOARD OF EDUCATIONS & not a specific city. I will however talk about each city or town in brief. Here they are:

Upper Canada District School Board Long term Programs or Short term Programs

Limestone District School Board Long term Programs or Short term Programs
Toronto District School Board

All of these school boards are located in Ontario in Canada. I have chosen these three for many reasons.

Upper Canada District School Board

Limestone District School Board

Good Reasons:

1) Located in Eastern Ontario with almost no international ESL students attending the schools.
2) The school boards are so large & they only have about 300 students that are from another country.
3) Ontario has the largest population compared to all other provinces.
4) These school boards are located nearby every major city in Ontario. (3 hrs from Toronto, 3 hrs from Montreal & 1 hr from Ottawa)
5) These school boards provide the best protection & services for you & your children.
6) The school boards are continuing to grow & are improving their programs.
7) The crime is lower in these areas than any major city.
8) There are fewer immigrants immigrating into these areas. (which means more true Canadian homestays)
9) Friendly, smaller cities that provide safety for your children.
10) Cleaner & low pollution.

Bad Reasons:

1) You can only visit major tourist attractions on week-ends (CN Tower, Niagara Falls, etc.)
2) You & your children might only interact with Canadian students vs other International students.
3) The largest city located in this area is Kingston with approximately 150,000 people.
4) Possibly higher chance to have culture shock because these areas have true Canadian families.
Toronto District School Board.

Good Reasons:

1) Toronto is the largest city in Canada.
2) All the major attractions (CN Tower, Niagara Falls, amusement parks, etc.) are located around Toronto.
3) Excellent International program for international students.
4) More international students attend here which means they understand more about foreign cultures.
5) Growing & active city.

Bad Reasons:

1) Too many international students.
2) Approximately 47% of students here have English as their first language.
3) Approximately 30% of students are born outside of Canada in more than 175 countries.
4) Only 10% of the students have been in Canada for 3 years or more.
5) Less chance for you or your children to interact with Canadian students.
6) Your children might meet other students from the same nationality and speak their native language.
7) Higher crime.
8) Higher Pollution.
