Meet Our Students

Andrey, Aneri and Sean teach us what it’s like to be an international student at Humber, and in the process, what we can learn from their lived experiences.

Andrey

From: Israel
Studying: Diploma in Business Management

Andrey, who was born in the Ukraine, moved to Israel when he was three years old. While Andrey had to make a lot of adjustments in using technology as a student in Humber, he has really enjoyed living in Toronto, his highlight being the Taste Market food festival. To help pay for his expenses for when he moves out from his homestay to his own apartment, Andrey works in two Italian restaurants. Eventually, Andrey hopes to start his own business in Canada and help bring his family over.

Aneri

From: India
Studying: Diploma in Fashion Arts and Business

Aneri moved from India in the summer of 2017. Her primary reason for choosing Canada was because her sister lives here. Aneri’s experience in the classroom has been a very positive one, thanks to the faculty that create an engaged, fun and interactive learning environment. Aneri, who is very social, has made a lot of friends since moving here. Her favourite part of the city is Casa Loma.

Sean

From: UK
Studying: Diploma in Financial Services, Business Management

Sean, who is seasoned traveler, first visited Canada when he was 16 years old when he came skiing with his school for a week. This experience stayed with him and was one of the key reasons why he decided to move to Canada for his studies. Back home in the UK, Sean, who had worked in banking for over 5 years, wanted to experience learning in a more practical study environment. Sean spends a lot of time exploring Toronto, his favorite spots being Kensington Market and the Distillery District.
