The Gold Coast, on Queensland's southern coast, is Australia's holiday capital, with more than 50 kilometres of beaches, surf spots and theme parks. Its relaxed coastal lifestyle is ideal for those who want language study with a holiday feel.
Some of the language schools NGGlobal offers in Gold Coast:
Brisbane's language schools are also about 1-1.5 hours away by train.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short summer course, 3-6 months for fluent communication and usually 6-12 months for a university pathway. Programs that require a student visa usually run for at least 12 weeks.
Fees vary from school to school, and university-based language programs and private language schools can sit in different price ranges. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
Language schools accept students all year round. For programs requiring a student visa, the CoE, health cover and visa processing take time, so plan several months ahead. December to February, the Australian summer, is the busiest period.
Your visa type depends on the length of your course: a visitor visa for up to 3 months, and a student visa for longer programs. Turkish citizens aged 18-30 may also apply for a Work and Holiday visa under certain conditions, which allows up to 4 months of study. NGGlobal helps you choose the right visa.
Students in Australia on a student visa may work up to 48 hours per fortnight during their course and unlimited hours during scheduled breaks. Working on a visitor visa is not allowed.
Homestays and shared flats near the beach are the most common options on the Gold Coast.
Living costs in Gold Coast are around the Australian average, with rent lower than in Sydney or Melbourne.
On the Gold Coast, the G:link tram and buses run along the coast, and trains connect to Brisbane.
Gold Coast has a subtropical climate with hot, humid, rainy summers and mild, sunny winters.
The Gold Coast is reached from Turkey with connecting flights, or by flying to Brisbane and taking the train for about 1-1.5 hours.
Gold Coast does not use daylight saving time, so it is 7 hours ahead of Turkey all year round.
