What is it like to be a post-secondary student studying in downtown Toronto?

Hey,

My name is Huy Tran, and I attend a local community college called, George Brown College, located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. As a student studying in the downtown core, I've experienced and learned a lot by just attending school. You get to know whats happening in school, and what goes around the school outside.

Toronto is one of the most diverse cities in the world. Cultures from all over the world are located in one city. As a student, studying in downtown Toronto it has given me the opportunity to experience the finest things occurring in the city. The atmosphere is amazing, tons of pedestrians walking around at any given time in the day, and local events and activities that happens daily.

Living in the city of Toronto, I commute using the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) to school. The TTC is one of the best transportation services to get you where you need to be. Additionally, with the different cultures in Toronto, you get the opportunity to try a variety of different cultural cuisines.

Downtown Toronto holds some historical and world-breaking records that tourist comes to see, such as the CN Tower. CN Tower was the world’s tallest freestanding structure from 1975 to 2007, but as a student residing in Toronto, I would always see the CN Tower every day. It has been a wonderful and joyful time studying in downtown Toronto.
