ratingOverall experience

I really enjoyed my course at the ACE in Manly. The facilities are great. Good teachers. I especially enjoyed living with a host family which means that you have to speak English all the time and your language skills improve very quickly. Good work/life balance.

ratingSelection process and gaining admission

It’s not difficult to get accepted. I used an agent so you don’t have to do anything. There is an English test on the first day to make sure that you’re in the right class/course.

ratingFunding and scholarships

I'm not aware of any funding and scholarships.

ratingYour study experience

The course is great and the teachers are very helpful. They try hard to make the classes interesting. Depending on your language skills I don’t think that you have to study too hard. I went to school from 10am to 3pm and had approx. 1 hour homework every day. Don’t worry – you’ll have plenty of time to get a tan…

ratingYour life experience

The facilities are good. There is a computer room in the school. But the best bit is that the school is right next to the beach. Manly is ok. There are plenty of restaurants and a few bars. It only takes 30 minutes by ferry to the city centre. I lived with a host family which was great. There were very friendly and I instantly felt at home. In fact, I didn’t want to leave after 3 months! I met a lot of great people. I still think I had the best time of my life there.

ratingJob prospects

It is very important to speak English so I think this course helped me a lot.
