About the Program
This program is perfect for those wanting to develop their practical English language skills, build their confidence in using English and experience all of the fun and unique features of the Australian lifestyle and culture.
Participants of this program will aim to develop their English language skills and understanding of Australian culture. The English language lessons included in this program have specifically been coordinated with the afternoon activities allowing participants to practice what they have learnt in the classroom in an authentic setting. Our practical classes are taught by qualified and experienced English language teachers and have a strong emphasis on developing speaking skills. The activities have been chosen particularly to provide participants with a wide view of Australia’s attractions, culture, lifestyle and history.
The English and Cultural Tour is based in Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland. Participants will stay with homestay families who will provide them with a comfortable room in which to sleep and three meals per day. They will also have the opportunity to practice their English and experience the Australian lifestyle as a member of an Australian family.
School groups are welcome to adjust our program to suite the needs of their students as well as choose dates which are ideal for them. Please contact STA to discuss this further and for a free quote. Study Tours Australia also caters for individual students by offering a program during the main holiday periods for a very competitive price.
