“Thank you to Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board for opening the doors and hearts of staff and students to our international students!

Going from Austria to Canada is a big step for a young person, and SWL has always supported our students all the way, so they felt welcome from the beginning and could explore not only a new part of the world, but as well new parts of themselves!”

“My experience in this course has been very positive. The program was well-structured and objective, covering all aspects of carpentry in a comprehensive way. I had the opportunity to learn not only technical skills but also the best practices in the field.

The teachers and staff at the school are incredibly friendly and supportive. Even though English is not my first language, they were always patient and understanding, making my learning experience much smoother.

One of the best parts of this journey was sharing the classroom with Canadian students. It was a great opportunity to immerse myself in the language, experience cultural exchange, and improve my communication skills. Being surrounded by English and French speakers most of the time helped me gain confidence in both languages while also exploring new experiences in a diverse environment.

I highly recommend this program to any international student looking to grow both professionally and personally!”
