Montreal, Quebec's largest city, is called the most European city in North America for Old Montreal, its festivals, food scene and large student population. With French and English spoken side by side, it is unique for learning both languages.
Some of the language schools NGGlobal offers in Montreal:
Other language schools in Montreal and programs at universities such as McGill and Concordia are also among the options.
In Montreal you can book short courses of 1-2 weeks. On an intensive program, one English level usually takes 8-12 weeks. Reaching the IELTS score universities ask for usually needs a 6-12 month plan, depending on your starting level.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Besides tuition, budget for items such as the registration fee, materials and the student visa and health insurance. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though complete beginners may have set start dates. Because a Canadian visa application, including the biometrics appointment, can take several months, we recommend applying at least 3-4 months ahead.
For a study permit, the school's letter of acceptance, proof of funds, a study plan letter and documents showing your ties to Turkey are important. Canada's student caps and document requirements have changed in recent years, so check current conditions with IRCC.
Working in breach of visa rules can lead to serious penalties, so always follow the official rules. NGGlobal helps you plan your budget for the course and living costs.
Homestay is the most common option in Montreal, and schools usually place students with families within easy reach of the school.
Living costs in Montreal are around the Canadian average, with rent lower than in Toronto or Vancouver.

Montreal has very cold, snowy winters and warm, sunny summers, with festivals and winter sports part of city life in winter.
Direct flights from Istanbul to Montreal-Trudeau Airport (YUL) take about 10.5 hours; the 747 express bus reaches downtown in about 45-60 minutes.
Montreal is in the Eastern time zone: 8 hours behind Turkey in winter and 7 hours behind during Canadian daylight saving time (March to November).
