Canada

What are the education stories of people who build a new life? Learners start by guessing which facts about education in Canada are true or false (free English classes, foreign diplomas, college vs. university). Then they read four short stories: Marco, a chef from Brazil who earned a cooking certificate; Lin, an accountant from China who validated her degree; Tomas, a father from Poland who studies full-time at a technical college; and Amara, a nurse from Nigeria who failed an exam and passed it on her second try. Learners match each person to a country and a background, put the events in the order of the text, and finish with a “find someone who…” mingle about their own school experience. This is Lesson 4 of a five-lesson series.
