I had to get an IELTS score of 6.5 in 2 months so I could be accepted to study Architecture at Sydney Uni. I needed a

In my opinion, ACE is the best school in Australia to take the TOEIC test. I had an expert TOEIC

The English for Teaching Children course was very interesting and will be useful when I go back to my country. I was a bit afraid of doing the
Teaching Practice but it was a really good experience. I loved the games, songs, rhymes and the craft activities particularly. The vocabulary
was especially useful for teaching English, and my speaking improved. Now I am more confident – I loved this course.
