Our English courses in Vancouver
Choose from a range of general and specialized English courses in Vancouver. General English courses begin every Monday all year round and can last for as little as 2 weeks or as long as you like. All our English courses in Vancouver use blended instruction, so you spend a portion of your English classes using online learning tools to reinforce and develop what you've seen with your teacher.
For students with more specific English learning objectives, we offer a range of specialized English courses in Vancouver as well. TOEFL and Cambridge exam preparation courses will improve your scores on those tests. Semester and year-long English courses lead to greater fluency and full cultural immersion. Our university pathway program guarantees admission to one of our partner universities in Canada.
Our English courses in Vancouver take place in a beautifully renovated heritage building near the shops, cafes and art institutions of downtown Vancouver. Located next to Vancouver’s iconic Rogers Arena on Cambie Street, EF International Language Campus is a short walk to False Creek Harbour and seawall.
