Access International English Language Centre

Overview

ACCESS English is on Yonge Street in downtown Toronto, close to subway connections, shops and cultural venues. Adult courses put an emphasis on using English in conversation, while weekly Friday activities give students another setting to practise outside class. The location suits learners who want to combine a short English course with time exploring Toronto by public transit. The school is at 730 Yonge Street, Suite 203, near the Yonge–Bloor subway interchange and within reach of the University of Toronto. This makes it possible to commute from several parts of the city and to plan activities downtown after lessons. ACCESS operates as a small school and caps its published adult class size at ten. Its Friday programme is open to students and can include sightseeing, sports, cultural visits and workshops. The school also describes optional weekend trips separately. A learner who wants frequent opportunities to speak with classmates can combine classroom study with the Friday activity. Check the calendar for the week you attend.

Add CAD 300 placement and four billed weeks of off-season Toronto-area homestay at CAD 330 or CAD 360 per week for CAD 3,431 with two meals or CAD 3,551 with three. Both subtotals exclude the CAD 100 textbook deposit, payable upfront, of which CAD 50 is refunded on the last day. Airport pickup and drop-off are listed separately at CAD 180 and CAD 140 for Toronto and Hamilton. Medical insurance under three months is listed at CAD 35 per week. Confirm exact room dates, coverage and any special-diet charges before booking. For June 1 through August 28, the corresponding published private-room rates are CAD 360 and CAD 400 per week. The same course and placement charges would give CAD 3,551 and CAD 3,711 before the textbook deposit and insurance.
