The iconic Opera House is, of course, the first must-see sight for any visit to Sydney. Find out more about things to see and do in the city on our Sydney activities and excursions page.

Our receptionist, behind the desk, is the first of many friendly teachers and staff you'll encounter during your time with Embassy. You can meet more Sydney people on our students and staff page.

As you can see from the signs on the wall, the building is shared with our sister establishments Charles Sturt University and Martin College, so it's a busy campus, filled with Australian and international students.

A student comes to the front of class, and writes on one of our modern interactive whiteboards.

These computer-linked pieces of technology allow you to learn with the aid of animations, sound, movie clips, and fully-immersive exercises. They really have to be seen to be believed.

At Embassy, we believe that you learn more when you're having fun.

All lessons are taught with full in-class participation, group work, pair work, class discussions and fun role-plays. These make learning enjoyable and improve both your confidence and fluency. At the same time, there are strong underlying principles which ensure that you'll be consolidating your understanding of vocabulary and grammar.

Our Sydney students have use of this extensive and pleasant library - a great place for quiet study or for doing your homework.

In the computer room, you can keep up with emails or just surf the internet.

An important part of the Embassy experience is the friends you will make - friends from many different countries around the world.

These are the people you'll be learning English with. When your conversations continue outside the classroom, your English continues to improve, too.

And it's the friendships you make that will stay with you when you go back home. Perhaps you'll keep in touch, and always remember the special time you shared in Sydney.

Sydney has many waterways, and a fun and practical way to get around is by ferry!
