Name: Mika Nakagawa
Place of Study: Medicine Hat College
Course: English as a Second Language
I began English as a Second Language classes at Medicine Hat College in Level 4 and quickly passed to Level 1 in 2004. I easily progressed from the E.S.L. program into regular programs at the College.
I am now a second year student in the Deaf and Blind Support Services program.
Even though I graduated from the E.S.L. program almost 2 years ago, the staff in the International Education office have helped me so many times. They always try to make an international student’s life in Medicine Hat comfortable and easy. Instructors help us not only with English but also with our private lives.
When I first arrived at the College, there were only 4 levels and 4 instructors, but now there are 6 instructors teaching 4 levels. The people in the International Education office have worked hard and made my school life easier.
Thank you Medicine Hat College!

Name:
Kotoe Kawauchi
Country of Origin: Japa
Place of Study: The Language Exchange
I'm attending The Language Exchange
and studying TOEFL. I really like this school,
because I have a lot of opportunity to speak with
teachers. My school is small. Therefore all students
and teachers are always together and there is
always a multinational mix. I have met Swiss,
Germans, Mexicans, Russians and others. When I
went to a big school, I couldn't see that much
nationality! We have a variety of activities.
They are enjoyable, and we can have a lot of fun
with different friends from other countries. I
have a good time. What I especially like are our
teachers. They are skilful and very friendly.
In our attempt to succeed in our life overseas,
we need to choose a school carefully, because
improving our English and making a lot of friends
depends on the school. I'm going back to my country
soon. I'm sure I'm going to miss the school, my
friends and Canada, but I will always have great
memories.

Name:
Natalia Giacomini
Country of Origin: Brazil
Place of Study: ILAC Toronto
I have been studying English in Toronto at ILAC,
and my experience has been greater than I expected.
The city is charming and exciting. I ride my bicycle
everywhere and enjoy seeing trees and parks in
the downtown core. Canadians are really friendly
and helpful and their English is so clear. I am
excited for the winter, so I can see snow and
go skiing for the first time. This has been an
experience that I will never forget.

Name: Kang
Han Keun (Peter) Country of Origin: Korea
Place of Study: Inter-Dec College
I'm from South Korea. Kang Han Keun is my real
name but most of my friends in Canada prefer to
call me Peter because it is easier to remember.
I have met lots of friends since I arrived in
Canada in April of last year. I have just graduated
from the Animation/Multimedia Program at Inter-Dec
College in Montreal, a subsidiary of the LaSalle
College Group. When I decided to go to Canada
to study, my friends said "Are you crazy or what?",
I had no friends or relatives in Montreal. I am
also not that young anymore to start a new direction
in life. I had found Inter-Dec College through
the Internet and I met the co-ordinator for International
Recruitment for the LaSalle College Group in Korea
at the Canadian Education Fair. What motivated
me to study in Canada was that Montreal is one
of the best cities for learning Animation/Multimedia
and also that it is a safe city. I worked very
hard to succeed in my studies. I learned how to
manage myself and how to create my future. Now
that I am a graduate, if anyone needed advice
on the best city to study abroad, I would recommend
Montreal without hesitation.
