Life Institute for English (LIFE)
English for everyday life
LIFE is a boutique English language Institute that offers a suite of bespoke English language programs to improve written and verbal English in areas such as; workplace communications, academic success, community cohesion, and more.
Background
Many Australian workplaces, academic institutions and communities are diverse linguistically, and as a result, English language skills are too. In any organisation, institution or community, communications are integral to personal, career and business success. Poor English language skills can impede quality decision making, collaboration, leadership, performance, academic achievement, community inclusion and much more. At LIFE, we believe people can improve their English language skills in a conducive environment, one that is supportive and nurturing, whereby the values of respect, patience and perseverance are normal practice. We provide such an environment!

Presenting
A good presentation starts with a well written story. A story has good structure, with a beginning, middle and end. A good story flows well and is easy for the reader to follow. A good story is clear and coherent. A good story engages the reader. LIFE can help staff to present a business need in the format of a story that is transparent, persuasive, and compelling, and importantly, is NOT on PowerPoint.
How we work
We come to your workplace, community centre or home to run workshops for small groups, and continue to provide one on one personalised English language coaching as required. We also run programs online using Zoom technology. Public workshops are scheduled various locations as need arises.
