Business English Course

We are pleased to welcome you to English Encounters, where we do our best to make your experience a memorable one. Our school was founded in 1996 by Lesley Bogue and has grown steadily since then. In 2009 the school was taken over by the Sprachenzentrum Wöhler e.K., a German-based language school. We renamed the school English Encounters in 2010 and relocated to downtown Burlington in April 2010.

Our mission is simple: to provide high-quality English lessons to anyone who wants to learn English can achieve their goals of speaking fluently with confidence.

We at English Encounters are dedicated to providing you with the highest quality education. All our teachers are certified ESL professionals with lots of experience. They all have a university degree and a special certificate to teach English.

In addition, they are chosen for their personalities as well as we believe that friendly, enthusiastic and patient teachers are essential! They want your stay to be happy and educationally rewarding while you Learn English in Canada.

Testing And Certificate

When you arrive, you will take a test to determine your level and to help your teacher prepare your individual study plan. Upon full and successful completion of the course, you will receive a certificate and progress report. 

Our Students

Our students come from every continent on the planet, so there are always a variety of cultures present in each classroom. You will not only meet Canadians, but make friends with people from many places and many cultures
