Legal permanent residents of the US may travel to and from Canada without a visa, just the same as US citizens. If she's adjusted her status and has the paperwork to prove it, there should be no problem. Since the K1 visa is a single entry visa, unless her status has been adjusted to permenent resident, it's not Canada you have to worry about, it's getting her back into the US that would be a problem.

i dont thinks she cares about going back to the USA, but rather studying english in canada before going back to colombia. where would she get a visa to enter canada, being in  the USA and being from colombia?

She's have to go to the Canadian Embassy or Consulate apply.

I'm not sure about the current visa requirements for Canada, but I guarantee that you if you leave the country on a K-1 visa, you won't get back in. The K-1 is a single-entry visa.

After a K-1 marries and files for AOS, an Advance Parole is required to re-enter the country before the permanent residency is approved.
