  3. Where is ILI? • Halifax is Canada's oldest English-speaking city. With a population of 400,000, it’s the largest Canadian city east of Montréal and is less than two hours by air from Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, New York, and Boston. • Halifax has an exciting port and downtown districts which host many festivals, concerts, conferences, and tourists all year long. • With five universities and colleges, over 35,000 students, a centre for hospitals, government, and financial institutions Halifax is the right size to offer students an environment where they can perfect their English.

  4. Getting here is easy Halifax Airport (YHZ) Getting to Halifax is easy!

  5. ILI campus ILI Location The ILI campus occupies over 14,000 square feet of ground floor space at the Bayers Road Shopping and & Business Complex. ILI Campus The ILI campus has a central courtyard fountain surrounded by bright classrooms,a self-study centre with 16 computers, free Internet, a kitchen, a Lounge containing a TV and a Ping Pong table, and access to photocopier, fax, And international calling service.

  6. Placement Testing When your students arrive at ILI, they will take written and spoken placement tests and join an appropriate class in one of the following seven levels: • Level 1: Beginner • Level 2: Pre-Intermediate • Level 3: Intermediate • Level 4: Upper-Intermediate • Level 5: First Certificate • Level 6: Advanced • Level 7: Proficiency Program Forma ILI's program provides your students with 15 hours of English instruction in the morning and a full schedule of activities in the afternoon.

  7. Placement testing Presentation and Practice The morning classes form the core of the program and have a balanced approach to the four basic language skills; reading, writing, listening, and speaking. In these sessions ILI teachers will present formal language classes and provide opportunities to practice in a controlled and supportive environment. Natural Conversation In the afternoons, students develop practical language skills by using English in real life situations. A complete activity schedule will take students out of the classroom to participate in exciting Canadian cultural events. Practicing English in an English-speaking country is the best way to develop naturally spoken English conversation. Informal Help Following morning classes, your students can get help from a teacher, browse the Internet, or use books, computers, or audiotapes in ILI's Self-Study Centre.

  8. Chaperons The chaperons you send to accompany the group play an important and well defined role. Striking the right balance between supporting the students and the ILI staff is an important factor in the success of the program. To help with the program preparation, we recommend that you clearly identify roles for the chaperons by choosing from the following three options. Option 1 If the chaperons are English teachers, they can attend a CELTA teacher-training course in the mornings as observers and participate in the social activities with the students in the afternoons. This option is provided at no additional cost to your group or your chaperons. Option 2 Similarly, the chaperons can attend any of our regular ongoing English classes, at any level that suits them. The chaperons will be provided with a certificate of attendance. This option is provided at no additional cost to your group or your chaperons.

  9. Chaperons Option 3 Another option is for your chaperons to attend a customized ILI program during the mornings that can combine language learning and teacher training modules. ILI will provide your participants with an official certificate for this course at the end of the study period. Pricing for this course can be discussed separately. CELTA at ILI ILI was the first organization to offer CELTA teacher training in North America. ILI now provides this world-recognized program through its sister institute English Canada World Organization (EC). For more information on CELTA or EC please visit • www.celta.ca • www.EnglishCanada.org
