These one-on-one classes will give you 15 hours of classes designed by your home tutor just for you and your English goals. Since you always have the chance to continue with your teacher outside of your class hours, the amount of learning that takes place is greater than it seems. Perth is waiting for you to discover its thriving arts and culture scene, including its renowned live music performances and festivals.
The city is well-known for its sunshine and long daytime hours, so you’ll have ample opportunity to stay out and get to know Perth - either being given a tour by your host family or at your own pace. You will receive full boarding during your stay, which is a great opportunity to talk to each other multiple times per day and practise your English. Even so, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go out for a bite to eat now and then to discover the local restaurants, cafes and eateries, where you’ll also put your English skills to the test in more dynamic situations.
If you need support for any reason while you are already living with your host family, you can get in touch with the school's Local Organiser, which is their agent who is on-hand nearby to assist with any kind of issues you might have.

This is the standard among HLI’s home tuition options, featuring 15 hours of one-to-one classes every week that are custom-made to the topics that you are most interested in. These topics could be anything, ranging from your hobbies to your academic plans, and everything in between. You won’t have to worry about meals since these will be provided by your host family - and the school encourages sitting down to eat with your hosts as much as possible so that you can create a great relationship but also give you as much English communication practice as possible.
Since there are five important universities situated in Sydney, you will quickly discover that this is a city that is used to accommodating students, which you will see in the variety of cultural entertainment that is always on offer. Of course, the beach is never far away - so this might be your chance to take up surfing or other water sports. It’s no secret that Sydney is an expensive city to live in for a student, but your host family will be happy to share all the best money-saving tips during your stay, including what to buy, and also what to avoid.

Learn with a private teacher and stay in their home while you study. HLI offers teacher homestays for those students who feel that they would benefit from the individual attention of a teacher, and also that they would enjoy the advantages of living with the teacher and their family. Cairns has a tropical climate, so you can look forward to improving your English while enjoying hot summers and mild winters. Your qualified English teacher will oversee your progress, provide you with three meals a day, and will be on-hand to help you with any issues you might have while navigating Cairns - your host family will show you around the area, local shops, public transport, and help you decide which activities are worth checking out and the best spots to do them.
With this particular option, you will have 15 one-to-one classes per week, in which you determine the subject and material that you would like to work on, and your private tutor will prepare engaging and dynamic lessons based on your preferences.

Immerse yourself in an English learning experience in Brisbane, with HLI’s home tuition programme that sees students living in their teachers’ homes with their families. Your teacher will prepare classes for you that get straight to the point about any subject that you want to learn about, which could be a particular grammar point that you have been struggling with, or vocabulary for certain real-life situations.
You won’t have to worry about what to do for meals, as you’ll be provided with three every day by your host family. There’s a lot to discover in Brisbane, but you’ll be able to look to your host for advice and guidance for the best tips for living there during your stay. You’ll learn much more quickly about Australian culture by living with a local family, which can prove invaluable for a variety of reasons.

By taking HLI’s most popular study option, you can have the confidence that you’ve made a great decision for your English and your future. You will be completely immersed in English, not only due to the carefully designed lessons from your host teacher but also because you can take advantage of the endless conversation opportunities that result from living together for a period of time. You can expect to be provided with three meals per day, receive lessons fully customised according to your goals, and all while having the time to explore everything the Gold Coast has to offer - either by yourself or accompanied by your host.
Your host family will give you a tour of the area, including the best places to buy anything you might need, where the most convenient bus stops are, and also give you advice on the best activities that you have to try during your stay. Studying English in this way will give you the fast results that you are looking for.
If you need support for any reason while you are already living with your host family, you can get in touch with the school's Local Organiser, which is their agent who is on-hand nearby to assist with any kind of issues you might have.

One of the most common complaints about language school experiences is that learners don’t speak enough English during or after their classes, but that is not the case with HLI’s programmes that let students live with their teachers. You will share your teacher’s home in Melbourne, giving you access to their language tuition and hospitality together in one package. Full board is provided, and you will benefit from sitting down 3 times a day to eat and talk with your teacher - and if you’re an international student then these conversations will also help you to learn Australian culture more quickly.
This option offers you 15 hours of classes that are fully customised for you, depending on your goals and personal interests. Having everything tailored to your needs means that your teacher always meets you precisely at the level you are currently at, and all of your questions and doubts will be easily resolved.
To make sure that the experience is everything you expected, there is an assigned Local Organiser agent whose job is to ensure that even small problems are dealt with very quickly.
