University Of Quebec In Montreal (UQAM) Language School: UQAM is exceptionally located in the heart of Montreal. Situated right in the Theatre District ("Quartier des spectacles"), UQAM École de langues is:
- 10 minutes away from Old Montreal, the oldest section of the city alongside the majestic Saint-Lawrence River. Old Montreal is world famous for its history, its architecture, unique in North America, museums, art galleries and numerous cafés and restaurants. In the summer, this vibrant neighbourhood attracts a great many artists, musicians and street performers. UQAM is also just a stones-throw away from the gates of Montreal's lively Chinatown.
- less than 10 minutes away from Place des Arts, a unique cultural complex in Canada where visual and dramatic arts come together and where most summer festivals take place. Downtown Montreal, with its numerous shops and malls, is just a little further along lively Saint Catherine Street.
- a mere 20 minute-walk away from the legendary "Plateau Mont-Royal", immortalized by the great Montreal playwright, Michel Tremblay. Plateau-Royal boasts the densest population of artists in Canada. This picturesque neighbourhood, steeped in history, is a must-see and cannot be missed.
- a mere 15-minute Metro ride that will take you to the Olympic Park, with its world-famous Stadium and leaning tower. The area is also host to Montreal Botanical Garden and Biodome that recreates four of the most beautiful North American ecosystems under one roof.
When choosing to stay with a Francophone or Anglophone family, depending on your program, you will live a total immersion experience. Just like living at home, you will have an opportunity to continue practising and expanding your language skills while getting an even better understanding of what life is like in Montreal and Canada in general.
Our carefully-selected families are both fun and friendly. You will be welcome into their homes with open arms. Clean and comfortable, our families, reside between 30 and 60 minutes travel-time (bus and/or metro) from your classes here at UQAM.
