  I would like to thank my mother who helped me with my preparation to study in Montreal. Secondly, I thank God and lastly all the GEOS Montreal staff that makes my stay at the school and the city more enjoyable every day." title="I was asked to write a testimonial talking about GEOS Language Academy (Montreal). I accepted but I want to explain it in my special way.Let's start with the city. Montreal, one amazing city!! Here you can walk safely on the street. If you love cars, you can see Ferraris, Porches and others nice cars passing on the Downtown streets. If you like to workout, you can pay about 60 CAD for 3 months in the amazing Concordia University Gym. If you are into the nightlife, there are a lot of clubs, pubs and other activities you can do at night. If you want to get to know other cultures, you can just sit in front of the Tim Horton's on the corner of Guy & Maisonneuve and you will hear many different languages (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Indian, Chinese, Korean, and etc.) I can also say the same about the gym as I meet someone from a different country every time I train. Now, I will talk about GEOS Language Academy (Montreal). I came here to learn English and French... ... ... ... Of course! This is the reason why people come to study at this school!!!! Let's talk about the amazing staff that works at GEOS Montreal. HUMM!!!!! Who do I start with??? Ok, let's talk about the Staff in alphabetic order: -Audrey Malgras-Serra: She is really pretty and smart, always helps you when you need anything and when she doesn't know the answer, she looks for it and gives you feedback. She has a soft French way to talk with you. -Billy Barbier: This man is very very nice and really smart; always asking about your news. If you have any kind of problem he is really helpful. Every thing you need to know about the courses, Montreal or Canada he will help you. If he doesn't know the answer to a question, he looks for the answer and let's you know. -Meehye Seong: She has the face of an ingenuous Korean girl, but she is very decided and firm. If you need any help related to your academic improvement, she is the person you need to see. She is very helpful and when the time is right to change levels, she will help you. -Sayaka Sakakibara: She is very charming with a soft voice. She always tries to solve all the problems that students may have about homestay or gives advice on how to negotiate a contract with a real estate agent if you want to rent an apartment or a house. -Uri Carnat: He is the man!! I met him 2 months before I came to Montreal on Skype. I had with some problems with my travel agency in Brazil and he helped me speed my process to come to Montreal. Every day when you arrive at school, he welcomes you with something different: there is "the sentence of the day" or after greeting you, if you ask him how he is doing, he will say: "You know what? If you are doing well, then I am also doing well!!!" He is a good person. If you have any kind of problem or want to talk about any kind of topic, he will take the time to speak with you. I would like to thank my mother who helped me with my preparation to study in Montreal. Secondly, I thank God and lastly all the GEOS Montreal staff that makes my stay at the school and the city more enjoyable every day." /> I was asked to write a testimonial talking about GEOS Language Academy (Montreal).

July was a nice month because it is always nice to be at GEOS, to see the teachers and the staff members every single day, and of course to be in contact with our international students. We started the month of July with an extraordinary event "the international jazz festival"!!! It was wonderful and must be experienced by anyone wishing to see a world class event. We could listen to music from well-known or unknown artists. This is what is great in this festival: you can see very good artists and you can discover new ones! The end of Jazz festival ushers in the beginning of Just for Laughs. As the name mentions it, this festival brings laugh and happiness! Montreal is such an interesting city in which you absolutely can not get bored. There are activities for all the tastes and for all everyone.
Our students enjoyed these activities with GEOS. The first weekend, they went to eat a poutine together as we had many new students interested in eating local culinary specialties. More than 20 students enjoyed a wonderful afternoon playing soccer and volleyball at Jean Drapeau beach. They had a nice afternoon and fun together. The most extraordinary event and we are proud of it is that we managed to gather more than 50 students to go to a 2 day trip to the Niagara Falls/ Toronto/ and the 1000 Islands. They had a great time together! They took the bus and visited two days and slept in a luxury hotel. They also went to Quebec city for a day and visited the Montmorency Falls. Besides, adding to the list was visit to Chinatown. To finish the month, they went bowling. Our students always have good connections with each other and they also do many activities together without any chaperone.
July was really busy and great. This month flew by in a whirling of activity. As a bonus, we received a holiday group of 23 Mexicans students. Each of them was really nice and motivated to learn English and discover the city. Our school was definitely lively this month. The month of August will be there soon and we will certainly be very busy. The weather will surely be much better (hopefully) and we will finally have the impression to be in summer. When you look at the combination of Jazz festival, Just for Laughs, Les Nuits d’Afrique, Les Francofolies , not to mention three incredible film festivals, we understand how lucky we are to be in a world class city! Montreal is amazing, you really can find everything that you want.
