Location

Set on an island in the St. Lawrence River, Montreal is a city where French and English cultures meet and mingle. It has an extremely attractive city centre, ideal for walking, featuring the largest number of 17-19th century buildings in North America.

The summer course for teens is held at a dedicated summer campus in central Montreal, close to shops, cafes, and many places of interest. The campus offers bright, air-conditioned classrooms as well as sports facilities, lots of green space and a cafeteria.

Course

The program offers a perfect blend of French immersion lessons with a leisure schedule that includes sports and cultural activities. On Saturdays, you'll participate in excursions to many places of interest in and around Montreal, giving you an opportunity to experience, first hand, the wonderfully unique Quebec culture!
