Founded in Canada
in 1976, Bouchereau Lingua International (BLI) offers various language immersion programs
for Canadian and international clients, intended for adults who want to improve their
knowledge of French or English. Every year, BLI welcomes Canadians along with foreign
visitors from worldwide (including students, working people, retirees, travelers and
others) in three different locations: Toronto, Montreal and Quebec City. All schools are
located in the downtown area, easily accessible by public transit and in close proximity
to a multitude of services.
The general
language immersion program (in English or French) is organized in groups of 4 to 9 people
at the same level. This is by far the BLI most popular program, with fast and noticeable
results, particularly in oral communication skills. There are courses of various durations
beginning every Monday throughout the year. BLI offers international groups in Toronto
(English) and Quebec City (French), as well as private courses (three locations),
combination of group + private lessons (Toronto & Quebec City), and other types of
courses, such as semi-private courses (two people) and groups pre-formed by the client,
which are offered at the three locations too. International groups (for English or
French courses) receive general instruction in French or English 20 hours per week. They
last from two weeks to one year and the minimum age to participate is 18 years old.
Private courses are customized, adapted to individual needs and run from 10 to 60 hours
per week in 5 or 6 days. These courses begin and last according to the client's requests.
In addition to
general language instruction, BLI offers language immersion programs for business people
whether in private, semi-private or small groups (from 3-6), tailored to the needs of the
participants. The minimum duration of these programs is one week and it is recommendable a
pre-intermediate level or higher. The English immersion program is offered in Toronto and
Montreal, and the French immersion program is offered in Quebec City and Montreal.
BLI can provide several types of accommodation: Host family
(French or English as appropriate), hotel, apartment, university residence (mid-April to
mid-August) and Bed & Breakfast. Most of clients prefer to stay with a host family so
they can practice the target language apart from their course time at BLI. Besides,
every week, BLI suggests activities for its participants. Many of these occur during the
week, while others, further away, are reserved for weekends.
