Teenage life in Canada includes extracurricular activities that Canadian students attend at school or in local clubs, such as sports, language courses, Arts, Music, Theater, gym, etc.
Sports in Canada are usually seasonal due to climate.
We encourage you to sign up for extracurricular activities: you make new friends, practice English in a different environment than the classroom, stay fit and busy, and build strong relationships with teens from different backgrounds. This is an additional value to your exchange program in Canada.
Our high school exchange in Canada includes all meals taken in the host family.
You are welcomed by a warm Canadian host family and learn firsthand about one another's culture.
You will have the opportunity to develop your English language and social skills by meeting new friends and sharing experiences with your Canadian host family. Canadians are always looking forward to learn about your culture, yourself and everything about your home country. Host families are selected by our local coordinator, based on availability and your interests and hobbies.
Canadian host families are also well known for supporting exchange students, by offering care at all times. International students will feel at home, from the moment they arrive.
You can also count on the full support of our local coordinators in Canada, who will be more than glad to offer any extra support. Students must be aware that they might be placed in several host families during their exchange program in Canada.
The personal growth and communication skills gained from an experience abroad can make an important difference in college and career goals.
