Profile

International Gateway Kelowna (IGK) is Kelowna's original and most trusted ESL school (est. 2002). We are local family owned and operated, and as a result, our students receive a lot of personal attention.

Morning classes focus on the core skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing, and grammar) while afternoon classes focus on conversation, pronunciation and Canadian culture. Other electives offered from time to time include IELTS and Business Communications.
