Are you an ESL student? Do you want to explore true Canadian culture, learn english, and visit some of the most beautiful places on earth?!
..Get ready for the best summer you've ever had!
My name is Matt Cook and I have the best job in the world! I take ESL students from all over the world on exciting adventures in the most secret and exotic places on Vancouver Island. I get to meet tons of new students every week and travel around teaching great Canadian culture, history, and english... all while having fun! I take my students camping, hiking, surfing, kayaking, and whale watching in some of the most beautiful places you could ever imagine!
Ok, so there are a lot of ESL schools in Western Canada... How do you pick which one?!?
You want to REALLY learn english right? But you don't want to come to beautiful Vancouver Island and be stuck IN SCHOOL all day! Your supposed to be on vacation! Come check out what other students are doing...
Experience the true culture of Canada and Vancouver Island by travelling with ESL Tours BC! Have fun! Learn to feel confident in speaking english with others. Conversation is the most important part of english.. what are you going to do if you read and write English but you can't speak it?!?
I want to teach the ESL community to grow and feel truly accepted in Canada. If you are Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, Turkish, or any other ethnicity and English is your second language, you are all part of a HUGE growing community in Western Canada! Come together and step out of your comfort zone. Become what you want! Be involved in activities throughout the city! Get to know more and more people every day. This is how you will really learn english.
ESL Tours BC offers great opportunities to not only travel, meet new people, and make lasting memories, but to learn English through hands on experience and really connect yourself to the rest of the community. See what other students are saying about travelling with ESL Tours BC.
