Learn English in the heart of Canada!
We would like to acknowledge that we are in Treaty 1 territory and that the land on which we gather is the traditional territory of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene Peoples, and the homeland of the Métis Nation.
Our original school is located in exciting downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, within the historic Exchange District where everything you need is close to the school including public transportation, shopping, restaurants, museums, the Winnipeg Public Library, and parks. Classrooms are large and comfortable. Students have free access to wireless Internet, kitchen facilities, free coffee in the morning, lounge and activity spaces and more.
Winnipeg has fewer international students than larger cities in Canada, and Heartland has one of the most diverse nationality mixes of all language schools. Therefore, you can be assured that you will not be studying with too many students from your own country and that you will be immersed in an English environment so that you will improve your English quickly.
The stories you will read in the Student Blog are written by students from all walks of life. We hope our blog becomes a place for you, current and former Heartland students, to stay connected to your Heartland family!
