What do students say about MIA?
TESTIMONIAL
“I came to Canada in 2015. I studied in MIA for almost one year, all the teachers are professional and they are trying everything possible to help students to succeed. There are many extracurricular activities and student clubs, including dance club, singing club, student union. Most importantly, MIA has excellent academic counsellors to help students choose courses to better prepare for future university studies. After graduation, I was admitted to the University of Toronto, St. George with decent scholarship in 2016. What I learned in MIA influences me as a person not just a high school student. I had a great learning experience in MIA.”
“My experience with this fantastic school has been flawless. As a mother sending her son overseas, I was extremely nervous and worried. However, Bader kept telling me how helpful the staff are which make M.I.A my recommendation to all parents sending their children overseas for good education.”
“My experience in MIA cannot be described with words. I loved the patience and caring that our teachers give us every moment. What I enjoyed the most were the school trips where we had more time to get to know each other and have fun aside all the school work. It makes me really proud of the fact I had the opportunity to grow as a person in MIA.”
“Being part of the MIA family gives one a sense of belonging to a family far away from home. Due to low numbers of students per class, I was able to enjoy personal and effective help from the teachers who offered undivided attention each time I would experience any difficulty in class. Being at McDonald International Academy allowed me to join one of the most prestigious Universities in Canada.”
“I had an incredible year at MIA! I have met awesome teachers who are very supportive and understanding. I received all the help I needed at any time thanks to the staff at school. MIA gave me a year of experience that helped me get to where I am today and I am so grateful!”
“While the learning is comprehensive and competitive to prepare us for university, I was more overwhelmed by the nurturing environment this school provides. Being an international student living far away from home, it is refreshing to be a part of a school with teachers and staff that genuinely care for your well-being, not just academically, but on all levels.”
“Being at MIA taught me how to interact with other cultures and get to know them better. The parties and house games made the school more fun for me. The most important factor for me were the teachers and staff who showed a lot of kindness towards me and taught me a lot. !”
“Some of the best years of my life was at MIA, from the clubs to the outdoor trips to the greatest Play I’ve ever been a part of, Grease! I genuinely enjoyed the accompany, teachings and the advices given to me by all the teachers alike. The biggest and best impression was always from Justin and Rosali, the best teachers one could ask for. Thank you for all the joyous moments of fun when we had our musical performances, dancing, and karaoke. MIA was the best school I could’ve ever asked for to enroll with.”
