During these past months everyone has tried to provide an online learning environment and we have heard that parents and students are very frustrated and disappointed, felt disconnected and alone. When we talk to students/ parents, the majority feel that the best solution is to postpone and study abroad later in life. Why wait to receive a good Canadian education? Why wait when we do not know when students can travel again?

Here are 10 reasons why it would be a good idea to consider starting your studies right now online with MPS and how we can help you to overcome these challenging times:

Save time
You do not have to wait to start your Canadian education. You can register right away and start the next day. You do not have to wait until borders are open again; you can continue your educational pathway without delay. We can help you overcome all the uncertainties COVID-19 has created and begin your uniquely Canadian and distinctly global education right now

Multicultural environment

Connect with students daily, from around the world, and establish lifelong friendships that span the globe, all from the safety of your home.  Take the opportunity to learn about other cultures, while being in a Canadian environment. Become an independent learner with the support of our team.

Validated studies

When you start your semester (grade 9 -12) with MPS you can have your semester validated and recognized at home. So, if you are at home anyway, why not start your Canadian education that is validated and recognized wherever you go.

Become part of a Canadian Boarding School
Once you have applied, you will receive an acceptance letter and will be enrolled in a Canadian Boarding School. It is an advantage to show that even in challenging times, you continued your education and employers in the future will recognize that on your resume. You will be making the best out of the current situation.

No Study Permit (visa) application
You can start classes with us without having to apply for a visa/study permit. Again, you will not lose any time. And, you can file the application for your visa and transition to on campus learning when your visa is approved, and it is safe to travel.

Canadian High School Diploma

All the courses you take with MPS will earn you credits towards the world renown Ontario Secondary School Diploma, with which you can apply to any university. If you start grade 12 with us, you can finish your high school in time to continue your education at university/ college in the fall 2021. Our teachers will personally support you live, real-time, to choose the right program/ university, help you with the application process as well as prepare you for the iELTS. Overall, you will be prepared and ready to study at university whether it continues to be online or in person.

Interactive, live, real-time classes:
Our Synchronous learning platform means you are in class, real-time, with your teachers and peers, interacting and doing group work with hands-on experiential learning! You will not have to learn on your own, but in a Canadian classroom environment, connecting daily with your teachers as well as your classmates from around the world. Immediate feedback is given to ensure your educational success. And on top of this, we offer community events, an Advisor program, extra tutorial support and a residential-life program. Parents will be kept in the loop about your progress to ensure everyone can support you.

Improve your language skills
All our teachers are ESL certified and will help you improve your language skills while completing your academic courses. Support to prepare for iELTS is also included and important when you want to apply to universities in Canada and other countries.

University Placement
During your weekly personal meetings your Advisor (guidance counselor) will help you choose the right program, select the universities that offers it and support you with the application process to your future college/ university. During that process we will also look into what scholarships are available for you.

Save money
Our synchronous platform is at a lower price than our yearly boarding fees. So, you can start learning from home with the same result of receiving your Ontario Secondary School Diploma that is recognized all around the world. Why wait when you can start your future education now!
