Stories from WHV travellers
“I came here on a Working Holiday
I studied for 3months, and my speaking definitely improved!
I’m so happy I met so many friends who share the same interests as me.”
“I had the opportunity to study in Noosa twice, ten years apart, and each time I felt genuinely at home on the Lexis campus. … At the same time, it’s still lively enough thanks to tourism, and I found it relatively easy to get a job in hospitality.”
“The grammar workshops, homework, job help, games, Australian food activities, and visits to other places made the learning process even more enjoyable and effective. In addition, I made many friends, met people from different countries, and had a lot of contact with different cultures, which made the experience even more enriching.”
