Today we finished our English class and enjoyed the test…read more We had a wonderful and enjoyable time at the English Training Center and we really enjoyed the all the lessons improving and reaching our language goals. I must say that we are so fortunate to have such a great teacher like Claudia. She is so kind and helpful all the time and I am very grateful for your kind support too. I am very happy to announce that your school is amazing and I can't complaint about anything. I am very happy and proud to be one of your student at the English Training Center. I am planning to come and join you in March -April course. Thank you again for your kind support for my English language learning journey. It really means a lot to me. Happy Holidays...! Yours faithfully, Rev. B. Samithawansha

Very good place to find, even when I first arrived at this location, I ran into the door of the…read morelearning center directly from the door of the bus. The center is on the second floor and has a large sunny classroom to provide a pleasant learning space. The teacher is very friendly and always offers as many practical opportunities as possible. This is very useful in the IELTS test. The course is very compact and the daily courses are done in a tight and efficient rhythm. Don't feel particularly frustrated If you don't fully master the knowledge of the day, homework will help you further understand and master the skills of the IELTS test. I searched for this institution through Google comments, and I must admit that this learning center has a good reputation. Although there are very few one-star reviews, please use your critical thinking to look at the commentator's commentary. If there are nearly 70% of one-star reviews given to different businesses, is it also a strange behavior? It is highly recommended as a language learning place for studying, working or immigrating.

I've taken a few courses through Metro (now located in Avonmore School) and to be clear, the 5 star…read morerating is for the IN-CLASS courses. They are amazing! BUT, the one course I took by CORRESPONDENCE was an extremely confusing and annoying experience!! There is a huge disconnect between the teachers who mark the modules and the metro staff who give you the modules. Nobody knew what was going on the entire time I was trying to complete Chem 20 by correspondence and there were several mix-ups with the marking and exams... would NOT recommend doing correspondence through this place... HOWEVER, I am having an excellent experience with the night classes! The Chem 30 teacher, Mr. Callegari is fantastic, and so is Ms. Brownie in the Math 20-1 fast track program. The teachers put in a lot of effort to teach all the students everything they can. I really enjoy the class structure, and actually LOOK FORWARD TO GOING TO SCHOOL! This was not how I felt about chemistry and math in high school... There is also lots of extra "study skills" type workshops available for free to Metro students; a nice, big student lounge with free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate every night; free tutors available most evenings before classes start; and excellent student counselors. I would highly recommend anyone wishing to take night classes to go through Metro. The night classes are twice a week for four months for a regular course, and three times a week for two months for a fast track course. I'm able to work full time during the day and complete three entire high school courses in four months (one regular course Mon & Wed and two fast track courses Tues, Thurs & Sat).

Besides the church it's the only organized centre promoting Hellenic culture in town. It organizes…read morethe Greek pavilion every second year at Heritage Days. It also does a New Year's Eve count down celebration every year with a live bouzouki jamming away the whole night (2012 tickets were 50$ a piece). There used to be a weekend Greek language school that takes place here, but I am not sure if it's still going on. There are also Greek Dancing lessons taught here in case you are into that kind of thing. The events have improved significantly over the last few years. The hard work of the committed volunteer indeed make it happen. Volunteers if you read this, thank you! Solid 3.5 stars.

I "worked" for CMAC for a few months (back in 2004 I think.) TOTAL SCAM. All they care about is…read moreselling classes and photoshoots to unsuspecting people. My paycheques bounced all the time. I'm not sure what any of them did all day, I think I was the only one who actually tried to work. One time when they had a "runway class" and the instructor never showed up they asked me to teach it. I was a receptionist, and had never even attempted a runway walk. "They won't know the difference." I was told. I don't know what they are up to now, but I wouldn't trust them based on my experience. So many thumbs down.

This "business" should not be trusted by anyone. My family learnt that the Hard way. We signed…read moreour daughter up for Modeling with Serene. We were verbally sold on their product and service. Serene did tell us that we had the choice to use our own photographer for portfolio photos, but if we used their service, and pay their price which is higher than anyone else ($895 + GST), our daughter would receive additional photo shoots at no charge while she is registered with them. After doing some research, it did seem like a good deal on their end, if we got several photo shoots at their price compared to 1 photo shoot at with another photographer. Since we signed up and paid over 3 months ago, we tried to contact several times to receive these photos, but each time got the run around. We have contacted several people included Better Business Bureau. Since then, all we have got was a false promise to call us back the next day, then 3 days later, we received low quality, unfinished photos with "not for reproduction" in red writing through the middle of each picture. It appears that to avoid any legal action, they have sent us what they figure will fill their obligation. However, who pays a low quality, unfinished photo with writing??? and waits over 3 months to get them? Each time we have phoned them, they had no clue who we were, and no indication that they were trying to solve any issues, as each time we started from the beginning again. The Office had to talk to the Photographer then told us to talk to the photographer, then the photographer told us to talk to reception. We did not sign our daughter up to "Be famous", we signed her up for a hobby but we have realized that our money that spent between the "registration fee" and "photo shoot" were a waste of money, as this business seems to only care about taking peoples money and providing any services or products that they tell you they are going to provide. A company that does value their customer and clients, do not conduct themselves in this manner. In my opinion, anyone looking to explore the modeling industry for themselves or for child SHOULD NOT go to the place.
