necessarily aimed at the Australian English

2. Real English is centred around life in

Australia as well as incorporating social media

from around the world to give students a

better, more wellrounded course to learn, live

and love Australia.

discussions with their classmates, teachers

and staff.

people in their community, in both public and

private spheres.

confidence to communicate in Englishdue to the Real English course at

CTIC."
