Our individual immersion programs have been proven to be effective and also the fastest and most efficient way to learn a language. All of the lessons permit students to have face-to-face interaction with one another, enabling them to use the curriculum in such a way that their individual needs are addressed.
All our teachers have degrees from accredited institutions of higher learning and are trained to teach and respond to the specific needs of each student.
Individual training has numerous advantages:
-It allows the teacher to focus 100% of his attention on students
-The methods of learning are adapted to each student's style and pace of learning
-The student's expectations are analysed and their weak points are determined and corrected
-The contents of the course are adapted to the objectives of each student
-Shy or reserved students are encouraged to speak and participate
-Time is not wasted covering material that students already know or that are irrelevant to his or her needs
Listening, Speaking, Pronunciation, Reading, Writing, Vocabulary, Grammar and Activities

Courses are rigorous and challenging so that students achieve maximum results.
The courses are purpose-designed for building linguistic confidence and effective communication skills for general, academic or professional purposes.
MLS offers a spacious, comfortable and a well-equipped study environment.

Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying English in Montreal. These homes are often between 25 - 45 minutes away from the school by public transport. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance. You must check out 1 day after your classes end (usually a Saturday).
