What our students said about Brisbane

Everyone needs to go to Brisbane! I had no idea that I'm going to love it so much that I'm even considering spending 1 year there with a work&travel visa. Everyone is so nice, the weather is perfect, the city is beautiful and the public transport system is really good!

The perfect blend of work & leisure, city & sun. All in a relaxed & friendly Brisbane environment. Brisbane is the Capital of beautiful Queensland, an amazing city defined by the Arts, Live Music, Sports and a warm Sub-Tropical climate that invites visitors to relax and enjoy its markets, parks, gardens, rivers systems and beautiful coastline.

Yes, it depends a lot on the teachers. Some teachers are really below average and have no interest, some or one teacher was really very interested. It was really fun with him.
