ILSC Brisbane

ILSC Brisbane teaches English on Adelaide Street, with reception on the first floor at number 232. The city campus overlooks a park and has operated in Brisbane since 2010. Students build a programme from core classes and skills classes, so two people enrolled in general English may have quite different weekly timetables.

Using English for work or further study

Café Work Skills puts English into a practical setting. Hospitality vocabulary and barista tasks give students a reason to listen carefully and respond to requests. A separate Job Club introduces students to looking for work in Australia. Someone primarily interested in workplace communication can compare this combination with the school's business English classes.

Learners preparing for an examination can pursue IELTS or Cambridge study. Academic English and the university pathway serve another purpose, preparing learners for the type of language used in further education. The appropriate pathway depends on the intended institution and its entry requirements.

An Adelaide Street study base

ILSC organises events and local excursions in Brisbane. It also describes a homestay option for students who want to use English within a household outside class. When choosing course components, check which skills classes are running in the session that coincides with the intended stay.
