“We visited many popular places in Sydney which made my stay feel more like holidays, which was great. We learned important things about the history and culture of Sydney while we were on these excursions. The school was not all learning in the classroom. After my three weeks at ELS in Sydney I’m really satisfied and happy with my personal development and the general vibe at school.”
– Christoph, Germany Junior Holiday English student
Students are Talking about ELS!
“I learned two very important skills during my AE course at ELS Sydney. First, I learned how to work in a team. This is very important for university in Australia as many assignments include teamwork. Secondly, we studied essay writing in detail, and I learned how to structure my writing so I can explain my ideas well.
The teachers are very patient and really help you to do your best. The study environment at the college is comfortable and very good for students.”
- Hieu, Vietnam Academic English student
“I enjoyed the eight months that I have spent here, not just because of the friendly atmosphere but also because of the amazing teachers who always supported me when I need help, even after class had finished.
One of the most important things here was the mix of nationalities. I have studied with people from many countries, and it was good for my English and also a nice opportunity to know more about their cultures.”
– Kaique, Brazil General English (Evening) student
