Thank you Kristof for your review.
It was a pleasure having you at school and sorry regarding your level but we are placing students according to the placement test they do. sometimes test is not that accurate so we do have other measurements in place as to repeat the test after one week or if student gets high mark after 2 weeks, he/she would be moved to higher level. Unfortunately due to your short time registration, it was hard to fix such issue.
I really wish you the best in your future and would love to have you again for other programs.
Good luck dear Kristof.
On the first day I was put in the wrong group but apart from that my experience with the school is very good. The teachers are kind, helpful, friendly and so are the students. Right now I can’t think of anything what I didn’t like. The school trips were also very good.

Thank you kristof for taking the time to write a review. It is highly appreciated.
It was a pleasure having you this Summer.
On behalf of Upper Madison college, I would like to apologize for the first day mistake and the only excuse that we were super busy with the biggest intake during 2023 which push us to act fast to accommodate all the students needs at their first day and as a result I didn't take the time to read carefully the full instructions and sent you to the wrong group. Sorry again for this mistake.
UMC is happy that you had good time during your period of program and looking forward to have you again in the future.
Good luck
I liked all of the teachers so much. The environment was so good and all the staff were caring.
The school was located at an easily accessible region.
I loved my classmates; all of them came from different parts of the world.
My homestay was awesome. They were attentive and helpful. I recommend them.
I now feel more confident about my English skills. I have improved my English a lot.
First, the teachers and staff here were very good. They were always friendly towards students. From the very beginning, they did everything so students would feel home at UMC.
Second, I liked all my classmates! All of them came from different parts of the world, and by talking with them I learned more about different cultures and countries.
UMC was something new for me, and I am happy to have been part of this school!
My experience at UMC was great! The staff there were very nice and willing to help whenever I needed their help. The teachers there were patient; if you had questions, they were more than happy to explain it to you. UMC is located right next to the subway station which made the commute easier. UMC also had an English only policy which encourages us to speak English as much as we can on campus. I think this really helped me with my speaking skills.
UMC is located in the centre of north Toronto - there's a big supermarket next to the school which was really convenient.
I really liked UMC; it was my one my best experiences in Canada. The teachers were really friendly and helpful. I made friends with so many people from different countries. I have improved my English a lot. I now feel more confident about my speaking and writing skills.

The social activities were organized during the class time and not during the weekend. There were no free activities during the weekend.
I reserved a one week super intensive class (30 courses) and I almost did not have any classes. The school didn't want to reimburse me.
Hi Louise,
On behalf of UMC we would like to apologize for your unpleasant experience. We are sad to hear that you did not enjoy your time at UMC. Unfortunately, you came on a rare week. The week that you started, Monday was a Statuary Holiday, which is why you started on Tuesday, rather than on Monday, which your agent (Language International) informed you before you registered with the school. In addition, you arrived on the last week of the term, which is quite hectic. We have final exams, and activity day and a field trip. Which is probably why you feel there was not enough lessons.
We do not understand why you were expecting activities on the weekend because most schools do not provide such services. We apologize if you were misinformed.
In regards to teachers being absent, this did not happen as we had teachers conducting each class, each day.
Due to the circumstances, we offered you an extra day of classes to supplement the Statuary Holiday that you missed. Unfortunately, you decided not to come.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at any time.
Thanks,
UMC Team
