Burlington, a city of 166,000 people, is a wonderful place to stay and study English. It is located in southern Ontario on the north shore of Lake Ontario between Toronto and Hamilton. It is a very safe area with a high standard of living. We are a small and friendly language centre within walking distance of the lake, park and promenade, the beach, a major shopping mall, restaurants and pubs and the bus and train station. It is less than one hour to Toronto or Niagara Falls by train or car.

GROUP ENGLISH COURSE
We really believe in the advantage of studying in small groups. Unlike many institutions which advertise “small” groups, our groups really are small! We have as few as 2 students in some cases and our average group size is 5 (and maximum 8). In a small group, students get more attention and our teachers can be more responsive to their needs. As a student, you have more opportunity to talk and interact with the teacher and your classmates. Observes ESL Teacher Randy, “it is easier for students to gain confidence in using the language when they don’t have to speak in front of a large group”. Moreover, everyone “gets to know each other well and becomes very comfortable expressing their ideas in English.”


INTENSIVE ENGLISH COURSE
An increasingly popular program at English Encounters is our Intensive Combo Course. By combining 20 group lessons weekly with 5 private lessons, students find that they get the best of both learning formats. In group lessons, which are typically held in the morning, students benefit from group interaction which particularly helps build conversation skills in addition to all the other skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing, and grammar). After lunch, Combo Course students take an intensive one-to-one lesson. Being a private class, students can focus on their specific needs such as Business English, Test Preparation (TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, or Cambridge), pronunciation, or Academic English. The private teacher conducts a needs assessment in the first class and customizes lessons and assignments according to the student’s needs and objectives. Choose this course to maximize your learning potential!


ACCELERATED ENGLISH COURSE
Designed for busy professionals with limited time, the Accelerated Combo Course allows you to maximize your English language training and immersion experience in a short time. In group lessons, which are typically held in the morning, students benefit from group interaction which particularly helps build conversation skills in addition to all the other skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing, and grammar). After lunch, Accelerated Combo Course students take two intensive one-to-one lessons. Students can choose the set curriculum of Business English and/or, being a private class, students can focus on their specific needs such as Test Preparation (TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, or Cambridge), pronunciation, or Academic English. The private teacher conducts a needs assessment in the first class and customizes lessons and assignments according to the student’s needs and objectives. Choose this course to maximize your learning potential and “accelerate” your acquisition of English language skills!
