Advice for Students Studying English in Canada

 

You’ve arrived. After weeks and months of planning, you are finally here in Canada.

You may be a little jet-lagged*, you may be a little nervous, you may even be a little homesick*.

These are all normal feelings. What we hope is underneath all these mixed emotions is a feeling of excitement and possibility.

This is the start of your English Language Adventure. So make the most of it. Introduce yourself to the people around you. Try to connect with other cultures instead of only speaking with people from your own country.

Go to class. Show up on time and try your best. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. This is how you learn.

Participate in social activities. Check out our social media for what’s happening in the city.

Speak to your counselor or teacher if you have any questions or would like any special advice. Don’t be afraid.

Your journey begins here. Be proud of yourself for how far you’ve come. Then take a step further.

Good luck!

*jet-lagged: tired from flying from different time zones.
