  • The inlingua Method is one of the key elements that contributes to your learning success. It is based on decades of experience in language training and is continually being developed to match the needs of a changing world. The emphasis is on direct communication through speaking.

    Spoken language is emphasized. Language learners concentrate on their oral competence before turning their attention to reading and additional listening or writing skills.

    Whether you need a language for business negotiations or meetings, to pass a language certificate or just for socializing and shopping, inlingua has a course for you.

    inlingua language trainers ensure that learners experience the presentation, practice and production stages of language learning in sequence. Within each stage, a wide range of different training techniques and activities are used to keep training sessions interesting and motivating. The overall amount of time spent on each of the three stages may vary slightly according to the topic, vocabulary or structure.

    Our Students

    “The first thing I was surprised with is the atmosphere in the school. It's not only cozy, but also quite friendly when it comes to relationships between students and teachers. Next noticeable factor is the wide range of teaching methods used by professionals. These techniques of teaching were pretty new for me since I haven't experienced that much of entertaining and practical ways of approaching to everybody in a class.”

    Artem Lysenko

    “I think Inlingua Vancouver is one of the best language school. A lot of wonderful teachers, many students from variety of counties, nice school

    activities and so on.”

    Kawakami Takahisa

    “Amazing work, awesome teachers. Inlingua has a special place in my life. Because of it, I was able to changes, have professional and personal benefits.”

    Juliane Guedes

    “My teacher Arghavan always gave us right practices and homework that we need to practice, and she also gave decent feedbacks. I thought it is very intensive and

    hard course for me, but this was what I needed to go to the next level of my English skill and I think it helped me a lot to adapt to my college. I’ve also used

    the study zone a lot after class for my homework and for my applications for colleges. Inlingua teachers are very friendly and willing to give explanations for

    my questions and advices about how to study English.” Da Woon Jeong

    “How Inlingua Vancouver helped me: as an Inlingua student, I managed to improve my English skills rapidly and to reach my goals. All my expectations were successfully satisfied and I received more than I expected from a language school.´The "English Only Policy" that is obligatory inside the school help me to break the language barriers and gave me the opportunity to "Speak English NOW" which is the slogan of this school. Inlingua Vancouver is highly recommended for all those who want to improve their English skills while having a lot of fun (maybe this sounds strange but in this school it's true)!”

    Aris Klados

    “After 4 weeks studying at Inlingua I would like to THANK all the teachers that helped me!! You're great and so helpful, always happy and very friendly. I'll never forget this experience!!! I hope to see you ASAP! The best school I've studied!!!!!!”

    Thaís Figueiredo

    “I studied at inlingua for 3 months. I had an excellent time there, had lots of fun and participated in many school activities. The teachers, staff and students were

    great. I met a lot of people from all over the world and made many new friends. Not only did I have fun, but also I improved my English that enabled me to get a

    dream job in New York City as a Service Engineer. Thank you inlingua”

    AccommodationHomestayAt a Homestay, students live, eat, and socialize with Canadians in a comfortable environment. We work with professional companies dedicated to arranging the best accommodation for students in Vancouver. These companies have a large selection of families available in Vancouver, North Vancouver, West Vancouver and Burnaby. All municipalities are located within 45 minutes of downtown Vancouver.Full board (3 meals), half board (2 meals), single rooms and shared rooms for couples are all possible in homestay.

    Student HouseShared rooms in a student house / dormitory located in North Burnaby but still zone 1 bus fare, about 35 minutes away from downtown Vancouver. This is a good option for independent students who want to live with other international students from inlingua, know how to cook, understand the rules and limitations of sharing a space with others and are over 19 years old. Our student house accommodates 20 international students, all of them attending inlingua, and is a good alternative if you are independent, happy and fun.

    SuitesPrivate rooms or shared rooms in houses are also available. Our suites are carefully selected by our accommodation coordinators to ensure a good location, within 45 minutes of downtown Vancouver, and a clean and safe living environment. This option is ideal for the student who would like to prepare their own meals, have minimal contact with their host family. It will give you more privacy and freedom than homestay. Students live in a separate suite, independent from the host family, and share the suite with other students. Normally there is a separate entrance to their suite. Suites have their own kitchen, bathroom and common area, shared among students. Student Suites are for students 19 years or older.
