Perth is a sun-drenched city on the Australian coast of the Indian Ocean. Its fantastic sandy beaches are perfect for sunbathing and relaxing, while the blue sea is ideal for swimming, snorkelling and diving. Perth has a unique colony of friendly dolphins that swim close to the shore. Situated on the River Swan, the city is very popular for its clean environment, friendly locals and very reasonable cost of living. The beautiful beaches on the west coast are within easy reach by bus (ca. 10 minutes). Perth’s town centre is modern and busy, its nightlife and culture are unique! King’s Park, a large area of Australian bush on the outskirts of Perth’s city centre, is home to many beautiful exotic birds. It is affectionately called the heart and soul of Perth by its inhabitants. Perth’s motto is ‘easy going’!
Our modern language school in Perth is situated in a beautiful garden. The town centre is just over a mile away and can easily be reached by public transport. The fantastic beaches are around 10 minutes away. The school campus is ideal for studying and relaxing. Studying is facilitated by the the new computer cluster, which has free internet usage for the students, and also by the school’s bright and airy classrooms, which are accommodated in a two-storey building; some of the rooms offer excellent views of Perth’s skyline. All classrooms are situated around a beautiful garden, which is perfect to relax in. Students spend their breaks here and in the school's cafeteria with their classmates from around the world in this warm Australian climate.
All tutors have a diploma and are qualified in teaching English
as a foreign language. The well-known Aquatics Centre which
was home to the Water Olympics 2002 is situated opposite the school.
The language school organizes numerous trips and excursions, e.g. a
visit to the Caversham game park, surfing courses, tracking trips into
the
Australian outback, kayaking, wine tastings in the surrounding countryside
as well as trips along the west coast that may last several days.
NB: The course material is not included in the price and must be paid for
(80 AU$) while in Perth.

Perth, the capital of West Australia, is a busy, sun-drenched metropolis
on the River Swan and the Indian ocean. This unique combination of city
life and water sports makes Perth a popular destination for visitors
from around the world. We recommend you explore the town centre on foot, especially around the botanical
gardens and King’s Park which is home to some typically Australian
plants. Afterwards, you can wander around London Court and go shopping
in this small charming arcade.
To art lovers we recommend a visit to the Western Australian Art Gallery
in Northbridge, which displays pieces of art made by Aborigines and is open daily. It is also home to the restored
Old Perth Goal as well as a renowned exhibition for the culture of the
Aborigines.
We also recommend Northbridge for its nightlife.
