CA$1,478 – CA$2,900weekly, approx. · 2026–2027
Weekly "from" prices compiled from 2026 and 2027 season price lists published on providers' own websites. Multi-week packages are divided per week. Tuition, accommodation, full board and activities are usually included; flights, visa, insurance and pocket money are not. Prices for school groups are quoted separately based on group size, dates and scope.
In September 2026 some large language-school chains in North America stopped trading. We therefore always verify a provider's current status when planning a program.

Why Canada makes sense for school groups
A safe, welcoming image
Canada is known for its polite and calm society. For school management and families, this is an important reassurance when sending a group abroad.
Multicultural cities
Cities such as Toronto and Vancouver have a social environment where dozens of languages are spoken. Students use English with people of many backgrounds.
A clear English environment
In English-speaking regions students meet an easily understood language environment. Language school and summer school programs can be adapted to school groups.
Nature and the outdoors
Lakes, parks, mountains and coastline are a strong alternative for schools that want weekend trips with a nature focus.
Cities and regions
We work with you to choose the city that suits your group's age, size and goals.
Vancouver
On the west coast, known for its mountain and sea views. Summers are relatively mild and dry, which suits programs built around nature and outdoor activity.
Montréal and the French-speaking region
A city where French dominates. It is not the first choice for English programs, but offers a different option for schools that teach French.
Other cities
Programs in smaller cities and campuses offer a calm setting that is easy to supervise. The right place is chosen based on the age of the group and your priorities.
Planning notes for school management
Practical points to know before deciding. Exact details are set out in the offer prepared for your school.
1
Season and climate
Summer is generally warm and sunny. Toronto can have hot, humid days; Vancouver is milder. Programs are designed to suit the climate, with indoor alternatives.
2
Accommodation types
For groups, host families, university residences or campus accommodation and hotels are usually considered. Host families help students use the language in daily life. Available options vary by school and period and are stated in the offer.
3
Travel and logistics
Direct flight options from Istanbul to Canada's major cities exist, but the journey is long and the time difference is large. Room is left for students to adjust in the first days. Airport transfers are part of the organisation.
4
Document process
Turkish citizens generally need a visa or travel authorisation for Canada. Requirements differ by passport type and change over time; the official consulate or government source must always be checked. We guide the school through the document process; the final decision rests with the authorities. Early planning matters.
5
Supervision and safety
The number of chaperone teachers is set by group size and age and is included in the offer. A 24/7 support line and local coordinator support are available throughout, and because of the time difference a communication plan for families is shared in advance.
Visa and entry rules can change. Check the official consulate or government source for current information; we guide your school through the document process.
