amongst ELC students

Endangered Species Conservation

WTC operate an in-house job agency that fills thousands of jobs per year. Members should stay in touch with the job desk regularly to update the staff on their availability and be offered work.

Get involved in the care of both native wildlife and domestic animals and their release. You will get the chance to support and assist the recovery from the January 2020 Australian bushfires.

Work towards preserving the wellbeing of this exotic and precious ecosystem. Activities include (but not limited) coral reef surveying, reef monitoring and marine debris clean ups. For 1 week + duration, you will get the chance to get involved in the marine turtle study.

There is no better place to Learn to Dive than Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. Combine this with some awesome marine conservation activities and you will have the time of your life! Focusing on environmental protection and sustainability, this unique program is designed for volunteers interested in scuba diving, marine conservation, citizen science and education, and for those wanting to create some special moments on this endangered wonder, one of the most stunning reefs in the world.

Ocean2Earth run many more volunteering projects in Australia. Contact us with your prospective dates of travel and special interests and we can organise a custom English + Volunteering package for you.

Study English first, then Volunteering in anywhere in Australia

As part of this package, your main focus during your first few weeks will be to improve your level of English to prepare for work after the end of your English course, but you will have access to a range of resources and services from the moment you enrol:

Voluteering projects take place regional or rural parts of Australia, far from Sydney. This is why students who wish to combine an English course with a volunteering experience first study English with us in Sydney and then move onto their volunteering project after the end of their course.

Beyond my language skills, ELC has also helped me build a social life in Sydney. I’ve met so many friends from around the world, which is something I love about ELC—it’s so multicultural, and I’ve learned so much about different cultures.

Before joining ELC, my English level wasn’t very strong, especially in speaking. But since starting here, I’ve improved my speaking, vocabulary, and grammar, all thanks to the highly skilled teachers. They’ve helped me progress in the easiest and most enjoyable way. My teachers, Dorothy and Emma, have always been so kind and supportive, and I’ve truly enjoyed every moment in class with them.

A big thank you to all the teachers, staff, and friends I’ve met during my time here!

The overall experience in Australia has been wonderful and it really helped me growing both personally and linguistically thanks as well to all the people I had the luck to meet during my stay.

Mi sono divertita molto all’ELC e mi sono sentita molto a mio agio a Iglu Chatswood, il mio alloggio. Lo staff dell’ELC è stato molto disponibile e mi ha assistito prontamente quando ne ho avuto bisogno.
