ikaz HD: DES VOLEURS!Pour commencer, les cours ne sont vraiment pas attractifs. Les profs pour la plupart sont âgés (entre 50-60 ans). Premier jour de cour, personne pour vous accueillir, vous devez chercher par vous-même et c'est assez compliqué. Une fois trouvez comment rentrer, personne au bureau principal...Le pire reste à venir. Cette école vos vols 400 CHF de plus par mois pour votre logement, je vous recommande fortement de trouver par vous-mêmes.

井上和恵: コロナ禍で、オンラインと対面式の両方が開催されている時期2021年7月から翌年4月まで滞在しました。日々変わるBC州のコロナ対応に合わせて、柔軟に対応されていると感じました。※最終のクラス　30＋、対面方式のクラスのみ先生方、他の学生さんの中には、もちろん私も人間ですので合わない方もありましたが、その対話の中にも学びはありましたし、良い思い出となっています。・希望により、クラスの移動を柔軟に対応してもらいました。・滞在中に、昔の生徒さんが先生を訪ねて来られたのを目の当たりににして、心が動かされました！私もその同じ先生に出逢う事が出来て、一生の宝物になりました。・2022年4月時点で、当初申し込みの週数より、帰国を早めた所、帰国後のオンライン授業を残りの週分受講できるように手配してもらう事が出来て、その事も有り難かったです。

SA AS: معهد اعتبره من افضل المعاهد ان لم يكن الأفضل من ناحية طاقم التدريس او من ناحية قياس مستوى الطالب و وضعه في المكان المناسب و رسم خطه متكامله لتطويره

morgana almeida: Positive:Professionalism,Quality

しおぴ: 日本人で英語で上手くコミュニケーションできないと、先生に馬鹿にされたような態度を取られる。

handoting: Teacher is really awesome

Isadora Franz Sonda Rocha: Great teachers and staff that really helps you with your questions or problems. The school itself has a really good space and learning environment.

Eduardo: This school is for lazy people who are just there as a pastime. I've been studying there for almost five months and, to be honest, I've been learning more at home and with my friends than at school. Also, some teachers have a strong political opinion, they waste their and our time talking about Trump and political stuff without knowing nothing about. It's not a really bad school at all, you as a student have an amazing online platform to study all day. On the other hand, if you are thinking in paying a lot of money to study there consider the negative points to not get up set when you realize that EC can be a nightmare. Also, I don't recommend "General English" unless if you are in the basic levels. Try to take some lessons as Cambridge or IELTS, I'm sure that is better than the regularly course. But if you can avoid the school completely, there are other schools with better environment without thinking just in your money.I really would like to understand the reasons to be too different between what we see in the class and what we have to answer in the Assessment Test. I can give some detailed examples. In the Assessment Test we have a lot of questions which are completely different from what we are accustomed to seeing in the class. I explain why: in the class we have never seen those kind of questions. I never received an activity with the options TRUE, FALSE, NOT GIVEN whereas in the REAL test the school evaluates you through that methodology. In addiction the reading done in the class displays these kind of answer: e.g.: find in the text the synonym for "bad". "Discuss you with partner about some meanings..." whereas in the REAL test we have a sort of issues that demand a more deeply knowledge that we don't see very often - seldom - in the class. My question is: That situation is purposeful? Why the test is more difficult than our classes? I'm not complaining about the test but about the lazy way that some teachers pursue during the class. I cannot understand how the staff couldn't noticed that big mistake. I lived in a homestay with more 7 students and some of them studied in others schools which gave them a lot of more preparation that EC cannot give us.EC deserves 5 stars only for the marketing.If the staff doesn't know how they can improve the school I will give some tips:1. Listen your customers;2. Create EC book. Do not accept a book that doesn't contain workbook (or give mandatory homework);3. Train the students to the assessment test, give similar activities;4. Evaluate better the teacher, certificate the classes more properly;5. Then, fire lazy teachers;6. Fix the machine, it stucks our money (food machine);7. Make possible changing students during the week. More effectively process without a lot of burocracy for everything;8. Try to imitate the best of others schools which have their own books (e.g.: preparation to CAE in the general English), parties for teenagers, best environment and special events.9. Improve the General English. Demand more from students. We cannot learn English with such bad classes.10. See the students as customers who paid a lot of money with the expectation that EC would be the best school ever.

rocky k: Some of teachers good n some not... They dont expline The grammer.. They just read it and for homestay in case if u dont like it they will change it after A while they are not cooperative with student in homestay... They just want to take money... I will not go there again

Nicolas Hartstein: Otima escola com pequenos problemas

Ba R: I've been studying at EC by a month and it's amazing! The location is good, close to Graville Station, Tim Hortons, Starbucks, 7Eleven, A&W and a pub. The staffs are friendly and the place is clean. Most of the students are brazilians, koreans, swiss, japaneses and colombians.The Wi-Fi is a little bit slow but it's fine. If I go to another place that has EC as a school to study, I'll chose it again!

Simon: Easy said..great school, great people! An amazing experience that everyone should have done at least once. I will always keep it in good memory and recommend it to everyone.

Gag Gag: I had been in this school for well over a year.Honestly, avoid it. Staff are very un friendly towards students (always unhappy). They are after your money and nothing else!If you ate sick they don't care. They don't even accept (medical excuses). I was sick for a week and they refused to accept my doctors note and left me in a trouble with the government.I wrote this review after having been in another english school in town and i saw the difference.

Itamar Carvalho: I'd like to express my gratitude to VGC International College for those 4 fantastic months in the Global English and University Preparation programme.It was an incredible event that was well beyond my expectations. Excellent environment, awesome structure, I was always at ease and appreciative of the willingness, expertise and friendliness of every member of the staff. Even though everyone was wonderful, I'd want to single out Christopher Hunt and  Adrian Valentine, who served as my instructors for the last 3 months. They are excellent and professional teachers, I can't thank them enough for what they taught me. Besides that, I also want to recognize, Aly Bhola for all the support throughout these months. I am very happy and satisfied with my experience at VGC, you truly are the finest language school!I wholeheartedly suggest VGC International College to anybody who is contemplating it, I am sure that you will not be disappointed!

Ignacio Dinamarca: I want to thank VGC International College for two incredible months in the University Preparation Advanced program.It was a tremendous experience, way beyond my expectations. I always felt very comfortable and grateful for the professionalism and kindness of every member of the staff. Even though absolutely everyone was great, I want to highlight Adrian Valentine, who was my instructor for these two months, he is a great and very professional teacher, I can't thank him enough for everything he taught to me. Besides, I want to highlight Javier Torres, Aly Bhola, Jude Conroy, Iain Angus, the Student Services Department and the instructors of Friday Workshops. I think all of you should feel very proud of working in such a great company, you really are the best language school!That being said, I can totally recommend VGC International College to anyone who is considering it, you won't regret!

Mara Protta: Excelente! Voltaria para continuar meus estudos lá.

Fred Ruiz: I consider VGC the best ESL college in Vancouver since teachers are quite committed to the development of students. Thanks to them, my English skills have increased considerably, as a result, I got a great IELTS result being this my main goal when I decided to study here. During my journey, I attended different programs (IELTS, Global English, University Preparation) thanks to the flexibility of its programs. I am so glad to have chosen VGC no only for the professionalism of teachers but also for the administrative staff who supported me all the time (study programs, accommodation, health insurance, to mention some). Thanks, Jana, Catherine, Bianca, Adrian, Pavla -such great teachers. Aly, certainly, an awesome university programs advisor!. Also Iain, Javier and Sakiko for all the support I received. Thanks, VGC!

Haze Nam: The best Language school

Luma Dórea: When I didn’t reach the IELTS grade (proof of proficiency in the English language) to attend a postgraduate course in International Business Management at Douglas College in Canada (🇨🇦), I felt powerless.While studying foreign language, still in childhood, I went through all levels from beginner to intermediate and advanced until I reached graduation, still in high school, in the 8th grade, I had the opportunity to live a year in the USA and study an academic year (in middle school).I returned to Brazil and continued studying English only at school as a compulsory subject and before the entrance exam I took the Cambridge proficiency test.And that was it ...With approximately 10 years of little use or even disuse of the foreign language, I firmly believed that speaking, reading, listening and writing in English was like riding a bicycle. Once we learned, I would never forget...my mistake ...It is true that I have not completely forgotten ... but I learned that foreign language is like physical activity, the more "sedentary" we are in practicing, the less strength we will have when we need it.Anyway, IELTS was not the last light at the end of the tunnel, I had another option to take an intensive preparatory course at a University Preparation Program, the VGC International College. I can only thank VGC and the entire academic staff of this institution, it was 2 months of intensive English classes, assessments, projects and a lot of hard work involving theory and practice, that made me leave the comfort zone and pull my capacities and skills to a higher level.Now I feel much more confident and prepared to enter another university journey and seek to achieve my professional and personal goals.Thank you very much VGC for the experience, teachings and experience in the last two months I hope you will continue helping many foreign students like me.Kind regards,Luma Santana de Souza Dórea.

Vincent Rolong Marquez: Thanks to all the support of VGC I was able to live an extremely rewarding and fun experience.I Improved my English skills in a fun and active way, interacting with the teachers, and talking about many topics, practice with my classmates learning new things in the process.It was not only very educational but my teachers and other support made all my learning at VGC truly unique.an unforgettable and incredible experience.
