Reviews of ILSC Language School, Sydney, Australia

The school was well organised, complaints were dealt with immediately! Some teachers were really good and were able to pull the class along.

I can only compare this with EF in Miami, where, for example, a meeting was organised once a week in a location, with games and music, so that the different age groups could get together, which was definitely lacking here, because the sports programme is not everyone's cup of tea. A canteen was also missing for cheap food, everyone is hungry and willing to pay for it, then you also have better contact with each other. Endless queues at the lift in the morning meant that students were always late. Pupils who sleep in class have to be sent home by the teacher, these are usually very young people who are probably paid for by their parents. Some teachers lacked dynamism, which didn't exist in Miami. Listening was done in groups here, whereas in Miami I had lessons on my own at the PC. Group work was initiated here, but that makes no sense at all, because my classmates understand me when we talk at school, but the sentence structure and grammar are completely wrong, very bad. Too cold, here and there, but here the air conditioning was very loud in some rooms. When pupils and teachers talk quietly, it's not possible. I then complained and this was immediately put into practice.

Very Asian orientated. I then also had contact with locals who feel the same way and avoid the city centre.

Good

The accommodation is unsuitable for students and the journey by bus or tram takes 50 minutes to 1 hour. 50 minutes to 1 hour, I rented a motorbike to shorten the journey during this time. I travelled by public transport in heavy rain and, as I missed the bus once, it took me 1 hour and 20 minutes to change buses. The stand is definitely not suitable for schoolchildren. The family I stayed with was and is a dream. I felt very comfortable there.

Good school and flexible

Classes with specialists may be a little more real about the subject
