Teaching Team
Our teachers love the English language and are very passionate in the classroom. All teachers are highly experienced, qualified with university degrees, many with Master’s Degrees in teaching.
We understand how to study a second language as we have all studied a second language before and have worked overseas teaching English. We have regular Professional Development sessions as our teachers love to learn new methods to increase student learning.
Student Teacher Coaching
This special feature is exclusive to Universal English! Every 6 weeks, every single student has a private one-on-one coaching session with their teacher where they discuss the student’s strengths and weaknesses and how to improve their English. The student sets goals which they focus on for the next 6 weeks. This private coaching session really helps students understand how to improve because it focuses on every student's individual needs.
Teaching Style
Our qualified and experienced teachers are friendly, supportive and committed to helping every student progress. They take time to understand students’ learning needs and help them build confidence in using English.
Classes are active and practical, with group activities, digital learning tools and real-life examples. Students may also join excursions and local activities to practise English in everyday situations and learn more about life in Melbourne.
Social Activities
Students love social activities we have many to offer at Universal English. Every year we arrange student tours to football games, Formula One Grand Prix, cricket matches, Australian Open Tennis, snow trips and many other activities.
Unique to our College is also “Active English Week”. We run this in the middle of the year and the last week of school where students improve their speaking ability and confidence building skills outside the classroom. We have singing competitions, cooking shows, drama and acting lessons, dancing and even yoga classes. All of our students rave about this week. You have to experience Active English Week for yourself. Only at Universal English!
Nationality Mix
Students from around the world choose to improve their English with us. In 2025, we had students from over 30 countries. Our rich nationality mix assists students not only improve their English, but also understand foreign culture, customs, and ways of thinking. Students make friends from all around the world and these friendships last a lifetime.
