"A lot of cultures."

Harufumi Tsuji, student from Canada

My best experience in IH is going to steveston. That’s because it was very fan to see a beautiful view and walking along the sea.
And I found many Japanese stores, I was glad.

"Great meeting!"

Tamaki Ito, student from Japan

I had Michael's Mid-Intermediate class.I liked the many different ways to learn English in this class.For example speaking, listening, reading and writing.In addition Micheal gave me a lot of pair work.This made me relax.I also had Jordan's Grammar&Writing class and Focus on Speaking class.In these class I liked that I could learn English by playing games.
I enjoyed after school activity for one day.Then I could make new friends and I had more opportunities to speak English.I had a great time playing volleyball with everyone.

"My experience in the international house was great because I met a lot of new people, everyone was nice and the lessons were also possible online for me when I got Corona."

Lukas Gusenburger, student from Germany

The classes were good because we all were on the same level because of the test at the beginning. The lessons were also interesting and varied. The teachers were always friendly and helpful. The location was ok but I think some parts of China Town aren‘t really beautiful so you had to be careful on your way to school. Unfortunately, I didn't take part in any activity, so I can‘t rate them.

"Ih made my Van life!"

Miho Kamae

I took many different types of classes. At first, I was interested in J-shine class and I learned about how to teach English. It can be learned in Japanese, however I could do practical training in Canada that was a great experience. Also I participated Cambridge preparation, which was difficult and challenging for me, but also good for learning different ways to learn English. I really appreciate teachers because they tried to understand me, even though I couldn’t speak English well. In addition, other stuffs and classmates helped me lots. I learned a bunch of things in international house.I wish I will come back one day!

ABEL GONZALEZ, student from Mexico

I tell you about my experience at International House Vancouver:

This experience was very nice for me, since it allowed me to learn basic concepts and rules of English, I was able to reinforce technical business concepts and I feel happy for the treatment and attention that were measured, both by teachers and administrative personnel.

"I have a prospective student who would like to study at International House Vancouver. Could you accept a 12 year old boy in this course? His mother would like to share the home stay but won't take the course, is this also possible?"

Bruna Messias, student from Brazil

We can accept the student into our program. The calculation is correct but you forgot to add mother's home stay fee. Even though she will not stay we have to charge her for placement fee and the housing fee same as the son. Also, is there any preferences that mother and the son want from the home stay?
