"It was a very good experience to improve my English, to gain confidence in myself for speaking and to meet international people."

Mélanie Odério, student from France

The teachers were very nice and helpful. Heartland International English School's location was very cool because this school in Winnipeg is in the downtown. The proposed activities were very varied, it was a pleasure to go to school every day!

I would have liked to extend my course at the school but unfortunately it was too expensive for me.
