Yasuo Sotomura has been part of the LCC community since 2012.

He first came to LCC as an international student in our Study and Work Program. Today, he works in the fire service and continues to serve his community in Canada.

Recently, Yasuo returned to LCC to keep improving his English — because he knows that strong communication can support his career, his confidence, and his ability to connect with the people around him.

His story shows something important:

English learning does not stop after one class.
It grows with your goals.
It grows with your career.
It grows with your life in Canada.

LCC’s Intensive English Program helps learners build advanced English skills for real-life confidence, workplace communication, and future opportunities.

We are proud to be part of Yasuo’s continued journey.

Keep growing with Intensive English at LCC.
