Problem description:

Is it some kind of language course

Analysis:

Linc = language instruction for new immigrants in Canada, which is called CLIC in French.

LINC is a language course for new immigrants in Canada, which is generally divided into 1-5 levels, each of which lasts for three months. LINC does not accept foreign students, only adult new immigrants or refugees, and it is completely free. A year is divided into three semesters, usually from September to 1 1 one semester, and from June to March 1 one semester. Keep rising to level 5. Like many primary and secondary schools, there are winter vacations, summer vacations and legal holidays, and its exams are graded in YMCA (YMCA). Almost all LINC schools (so-called schools, mostly offices with one or two floors) can take children aged from half to five free of charge (6-year-old children can attend preschool classes for free in primary schools, but only for half a day), and they can also reimburse some TTC tickets.

ESL = Non-native English course with English as the second language, called FSL in French.

Canada uses two official languages, so international students can come to Canada to study English as a second language (ESL) or French as a second language (FSL). Many people choose to learn English as a second language in Canada because there are many excellent English language schools in Canada. Because a large number of new immigrants need to learn English, Canada has trained a considerable number of ESL professional teachers for many years. In language schools, foreign students can learn comprehensive English, business English or ESP. Sometimes the cost of an English elective course exceeds 1000 Canadian dollars, and almost all universities and community colleges offer ESL courses. Generally speaking, most ESL schools have flexible admission requirements and admission time.
