An International Experience
Students at NCELTR come from all parts of the globe,
Asia, Europe and Latin America.
Teachers and Administrative staff at NCELTR are
trained in intercultural awareness and communication and work hard to ensure
that students are able to develop friendships with each other across many cultures.
Studying English at NCELTR does not simply improve your English language knowledge:
it also helps prepare you with the intercultural communications, understanding
and skills you will require for success in a competitive international environment.
As well as English classes students can enjoy the dance parties, soccer matches

in such on-campus activities is a great way to meet other international students,
improve your English, learn about Australian culture and enjoy life, as well
as succeed in your studies.
