Learn English in Australia

You can learn English faster than you thought possible and have more fun than you imagined on a modern Lingoo language exchange or homestay.

You, your child or your family group can learn English by staying with one of our approved hosts throughout Australia.  As well as providing a warm welcome, our hosts will support your language learning and show you the local sights and sounds. 

Learn fast, gain confidence, have fun

There are three ways to learn English with Lingoo:

Language exchange – you, your child or family stays with a family in Australia then the other family’s member (or members) stays with you and your family. Find out more
Homestay – you, your child or family group stay with a family in Australia.  Find out more
Stay with a teacher – you or your child stay in the home of a teacher in Australia for more structured lessons. Find out more.

Our hosts all over Australia are ready to welcome you into their homes to help you learn English.  Each has been approved using stringent security checks by the Lingoo team. Now they are ready to help you learn fast, grow in confidence, and experience their Australian culture and lifestyle. 

Surrounded by the Indian and Pacific Oceans, Australia is a wild and beautiful place characterised by extraordinary landscapes of fabled red desserts, vivid blue skies, sandy beaches and tropical rainforests. The outback, a central expansive arid wilderness, means much of the 24 million population are concentrated in temperate cosmopolitan coastal cities, which enjoy endless summers and easy living. Off the north east coast, the vibrant technicolour diving hotspot of the Great Barrier Reef extends for 1,240 miles.

Surfing, Australian Rules Football and rugby league are popular sports. Iconic urban landmarks such as the grand Sydney Opera House are as popular as natural spectacles like the spiritual Ayers Rock in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Rich in history, indigenous Australians were here for 50,000 years prior to European settlements in the late 18th century. Seafood is the star of Australian cuisine, and shrimps on the ‘barbie’ are as ubiquitous as the city cafes serving world class coffee. 

Finding the right host is important. We help you choose who you stay with based on location, lifestyle, interests (and even diet or religion). Our aim is to help you find an English language partner so right for you that, through the learning experience, you might easily become friends.
