EF Australia reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Studying with EF Australia was one of the best experiences of my life. From the very first day, I felt welcomed and supported by the staff and teachers. The classes are very dynamic, which makes learning English fun and practical at the same time. I also met people from all around the world, which helped me improve my English and learn about many different cultures. I miss my classmates a lot, and this experience gave me more confidence, new friendships, and memories I will never forget. The only thing I would suggest improving is the food provided by some host families, as it wasn’t always very balanced. Overall, I totally recommend EF Australia! 🌟♥️🐨"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "My experience at EF Perth was amazing! The school offered a lot of fun activities like beach volleyball, surfing lessons, barbecues, and weekend trips to places like Rottnest Island and Fremantle. I joined several of them and they were a great way to meet new people and explore Australia. I felt very comfortable at the school from the beginning - the staff were super friendly and always ready to help with anything. I'd recommend EF Perth especially for students between 18 and 25 who enjoy nature, the beach, and a relaxed lifestyle. My favorite EF moment was watching the sunset at Cottesloe Beach with all my new international friends - it was unforgettable!"
