English Bay College was created for English language students from all over the world. Our facilities are first class and we offer English as a Second Language (ESL), Business English, Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL), TOEFL, TOEIC, and online classes. We are conveniently located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, just five minutes from the Burrard Skytrain. Two blocks away you can go shopping on Robson Street or take a short walk to world famous Stanley Park or English Bay. Canadian owned and operated, English Bay College is bonded and licensed by the Post Secondary Education Commission of British Columbia to accept international students.

English Bay College is a creative atmosphere where students can utilize information technology, computers and software, and the most modern interactive teaching techniques to accomplish all of their English learning goals. Students utilize two textbooks and all of our courses are supported with interactive CD-ROM software. It is a fact these days, that software and information technology have changed the face of education. At English Bay College, we welcome this change, because it gives individual students more power to control the outcome of their language learning. Our classes are lively, interesting, educational, and most of all, practical. Accelerate your English learning and monitor your progress using our monthly Computer Tracking and Testing Centre.
