ESLA Student Testimonial Submission Form - School of Linguistics and Language Studies

Did you take an ESLA course(s) at Carleton and complete your ESLR? If so, we hope you’ll consider writing a student testimonial looking back on your experiences, reflecting on what you learned, and sharing your thoughts with prospective future students.

The form below functions both as a submission form and consent form. This means you are using it to (a) send us your testimonial and (b) give us your permission (i.e. consent) to share it on our website, social media, and in other promotional materials.

As soon as you click the “I consent” option below, some text fields will appear where you can write your testimonials in both English and your first language. Also, please consider adding a photo.
