Overview
The Brisbane campus occupies levels 11 and 12 at 288 Edward Street in the CBD. It suits learners who want an urban base with public transport, shopping and dining around their classes. Brisbane is a separate campus from Maroochydore and Noosa. Confirm the teaching and accommodation addresses before arranging onward travel from the airport.
General English, IELTS and Cambridge preparation are available. Check exam course intakes if you want to progress into exam preparation. Daytime part-time General English allows more time outside class. The evening timetable published for Sydney and Perth does not apply to Brisbane.
Student One is around five minutes on foot from class and has shared facilities including a pool and gym. Compare it with homestay if you prefer meals with a local family, taking food and commuting costs into account.
The Edward Street location lets students combine a weekday timetable with errands and independent practice around the central business district.
