Study English and French in the Heart of MontrealJust like its vibrant city, UQAM is a dynamic, open, creative university with an international outreach. Located in the heart of Montreal, UQAM welcomes students from a wide variety of linguistic and cultural communities.
Recognized for the high quality of their programs, UQAM’s École de langues (School of Modern Languages) and Formations linguistiques non créditées (Non-Credit Language Courses) are offering an immersive language experience.
This summer programme is not just about language – it’s about the city, its people, and its culture.
› You will take three types of language classes:
1. English in the City: focuses on situational language – language to use in Montreal whether it be with your host family, locals, or new friends
2. Discover Canadian Culture: addresses academic topics such as Canadian education, society, people, food, and nature all while perfecting your English
3. French in the City: introduces basic French vocabulary and expressions for simple conversations during your stay
› In three weeks, you will use two languages in their authentic setting.
› Language professors, UQAM student volunteers, and a programme coordinator will make your stay stimulating, fun, and stress-free.
“When I arrived in Canada, I couldn’t express what I really wanted to say. With the help of great teachers at UQAM and of my lovely host family, I could practice every day and I could have confidence in speaking English.” – Mari M. (Japan)
