This especially relates to our academic program, where we have used many years of experience and a wealth of knowledge to create the Langports Academic Way – L.A.W.
What is L.A.W.?InsteadofsimplyrelyingonthetraditionalEnglishlanguagetextbookapproach,ourteachersaretrained to be able to teach beyond the textbook, exploring the important areas of grammar and vocabulary. Modern research has highlighted the importance of grammar and vocabulary being taught together, especially in the classroom.
Inordertoachievethis,teachersatLangports,throughourin-house teacher training program, are trained on how to teach grammar and vocabulary and how to make it more understandable and enjoyable for students.

As a demi-pair, I had to do some really easy work, like play with the kids, prepare their meals and help the mother with the house as well. I chose this program because it allowed me to improve
my English faster as I lived with an Australian family and experience their culture. Sandrina from New-Caledonia studied at Langports Brisbane

Being a demi-pair is just like being an au-pair but part-time. With this program, students can study English while having a complete Australian cultural experience living and working with an Australian family, and also saving money.
Langports’ English + Demi-pair Program is designed for students who wish to improve their English, whilst discovering a new culture and experiencing life in an Australian family as a part-time au-pair. In this 12-week program, demi-pair students receive accommodation and 3 meals per day in exchange for working 15 hours per week in their demi-pair host family.
Tasks include 50% housework (vacuuming, dusting,cleaningbathroomsetc.)and50%childcare(preparingmeals, taking the children to school, helping with homework etc.)
Students can combine this program with different English courses such as UFO English full time & part time*, Cambridge Flexi, FCE, CAE, EAP, IELTS & TOEIC.
This program helps students to save a lot of money on accommodationexpenses.
Students may have the possibility to renew their placement at the end of the program, depending on theirfirstexperience,andvisaconditions.
