Why Foreigner Students like Toronto to Come to Learn English?

By Roger Gabriel


Toronto is a fine example of how melting pots are supposed to work. The city has residents who hail from every corner of the world. This is wonderful because it means that people can experience all sorts of different foods and cultural events without ever having to leave the city. The really lovely thing is that unlike other parts of the world, in Toronto, most of the various ethnicities are able to live together in harmony. Toronto is very proud of the fact that so many people have come from far away just to live in the city that is beautiful as well as diversified.

The colleges in Toronto attract a large portion of their students from countries other than Canada. Many of these students come from the United States and Europe but there are also some who call Africa and Asia home. The outstanding education that these students receive is just one of the reasons that the students flock to Toronto. Many of them come because they have fallen in love with the city and feel that the fact that they can get a good education is just a perk. Some of the students who come to Toronto do so as part of the Toronto English as a Second Language (Toronto ESL) program.

Many parents get very nervous when it is time for their child to leave home and go away to school. The two things they worry about the most include money and their child's safety. The tuition at Toronto's schools is very reasonable which helps ease a good portion of the parent's anxiety. On top to the low tuition the city has a very reasonable cost of living meaning the child will not be begging for money as often as they would if they attended school somewhere else. Toronto has a very good reputation as being a very safe city, making it a good choice for students who still have a lot to learn about the world.

There was one pall that was thrown over the city of Toronto and its educational opportunities. It has suddenly become very difficult for some students who would like to attend school in Toronto to get a student visa. This is not the fault the Toronto schools, but rather the Canadian government. Unable to get into the Toronto school that they wanted to attend, the Mexican students were forced to turn to other cities for their education. The Toronto schools were forced to refund the tuition of any student who was unable to enroll because the government denied them their student visa.

Foreign students who decided that they are going to go to a school in Toronto to further their education should be prepared to experience one of the best times of their life. The student will have a seemingly bottomless list of academic fields, including, that Toronto English as a Second Language (Toronto ESL), they can enroll in. In addition to the academics the students will be encouraged to participate in all sorts of life including social events. The students should not expect to spend the entire time on the school's campus. The subway provides an excellent source of transportation from schools like Metropolitan College and into downtown Toronto. In addition to trips into Toronto, students often plan trips during school breaks that take them to places like Niagara Falls, Vancouver, and Montreal.
