Socked news

While the U.S. and the U.K. were traditionally the top choices for many international students looking to improve their English, Southern Hemisphere nations are becoming increasingly popular among Asian and Latin American students looking to get more bang for their buck. Australia and New Zealand, famed for their temperate climates, laid back lifestyle, and stunning scenery, are fast becoming key contenders for students looking for a different English learning experience. Students can expect highly-qualified teachers, along with industry-leading teaching technologies and facilities, not to mention exceptional, one-of-a kind programs. 

Thanks to the range of courses available, as well as the outstanding teaching staff, the host of extracurricular activities on offer, and easy access to student visas, Australia and New Zealand cater to all English levels and nationalities with courses that won’t break the bank. Students can choose from a wide variety of courses, including IELTS exam preparation, Cambridge FCE, CAE and BEC exam preparation, and more unusual options such as English + Surfing. English is also the first language in both countries, meaning that students can practice outside the classroom in everyday situations, or while out socializing with friends. Aussies and Kiwis – as they are affectionately known – are known to be among the most welcoming and laid back people in the world. Both countries are famed for their easy-going lifestyle, meaning that students will settle in and feel at home quicker than they would if they were studying in a large city like London or New York.
