My aunt and cousins studied at Conestoga so I knew it was a good school. The way they teach here is different. My teacher knows how to explain things. She is patient and takes her time so we understand what shes saying and this helps me to learn English better. I really enjoy meeting students from other countries and cultures, too. Alba, Venezuela ELS Program After working for 7 years in the financial services industry in India, I took the Global Business Management program at Conestoga. The program ends with a business simulation game that required us to effectively put our learning to use and to take strategic and tactical business decisions by thinking critically. The instructors are highly experienced and supportive.... The International office helped me with my work permit application and the beautiful excursions that the college arranged for the international students were truly memorable.

We do a lot of presentations in marketing and I like working with the different groups of students. During class we can feel free to interrupt the teacher to ask any questions we want. We are encouraged to discuss and ask questions. I like this a lot... I volunteer [for the International Office] because I meet a lot of people and also learn a lot about Canadian culture. Rosiel, China 2nd year, Marketing
The International Office helped me a lot when I first arrived at Conestoga. They were really nice and helped me find a great place to live. They also plan lots of fun activities so I can get to know other students and we can help each other with our English. Im now studying hospitality management and the English I learned in ELS made me more confident in my new program. Wenny, China Hospitality Management
