Kanako (Japan)

I chose the ELC in Launceston because I can learn English in a small class, which is a good atmosphere for me, and all the students and teachers are very friendly. I’ve made many friends, who help me when I feel nervous! Tasmania has an extremely beautiful night sky, I can see the Milky Way and shooting stars.

It’s a rewarding experience to study at the ELC. I owe my great strides in English to the teaching that all the ELC teachers gave me! The teachers are both intellectually stimulating and emotionally supportive.

I love the ELC because there are so many good teachers. The ELC teachers are always kind to students, and if we have any kind of problem, they try to help us. Not only teachers, but the classes are really good – listening, reading, writing and speaking, and different level classes so you can study in a suitable level for you.

Students at the ELC learn English language as well as many other useful things. I’ve found Tasmania to be a peaceful and quiet place for studying, where the people are friendly and kind.

 I like the ELC because all of the teachers and students are really friendly. I’ve made many friends from other countries and that is a fantastic thing. We went on trips together and got to know many different cultures. I’ve had many opportunities to communicate with local people and I’ve also had a lot of help from my teachers.

Kiwamu (Japan)

I’ve enjoyed studying at the ELC for the past year because the lessons are interesting and the teachers are very sincere. The ELC will definitely help your English improve – my English used to be terrible, I couldn’t talk to Australian people and understand what they were saying – but now my English is much better! You can study English and Australian culture through life in Launceston, it’s a good place to study and live in.

I like the ELC because it has small classes, a good education system, and a lot of useful facilities. Moreover, I enjoy the class because the teachers have many funny ways to teach me, and help me understand the weaknesses in my English skills! In Launceston, the people are very kind, and it is a peaceful city – a good place for study.

Alex (Russia)

All my English skills, particularly writing, were strengthened by attending the IELTS preparation class. I got a lot of information about the exam and feel ready to take it. I also got a lot of practice materials.

Itxaso (Spain)

The thing that I like in this Centre is the atmosphere and the good relationship between students and teachers. I think it is great! I think Tasmania is a quiet and beautiful place with friendly people. The teachers at the ELC are all professionals who have very good skills.

Carlos (Columbia)

Students gain much more than language skills at the English Language Centre. They learn who they really are. By having to interact with others they find out how to fit in with a group and cooperate with other students who are also having this unique experience in a foreign country.

Gerardo (Mexico)

My principal purpose for studying English abroad was to get a better job in Mexico and I feel sure I will be able to do that after my six months in Hobart.
