Look who’s back at GV Calgary

Many GV Calgary alumni will remember Terry O’Dwyer who was at GV Calgary from 1996 to 2003. After eight years in the UAE with his family, Terry is back in both a teaching and admin role in the school. We are also delighted that Carla O’Dwyer has joined us as Accommodations Coordinator.

Student opinion

"Before I took the Cambridge First Certificate Test, I signed up for the 3 month preparation course also at GV Calgary, where I'm so glad I studied. GV helped me to stay calm during the test, and I scored an excellent result, an A!, which will help me with future employment."
