My ELS experience was very awesome! Not only did I learn more English but I also made a lot of local and international friends and got involved with College activities at The College Of Mount Saint Vincent. I had the opportunity to visit some college classes related to my study in my country. The teachers and the students were very kind and friendly. Definitely, this experience opened my mind even more!
