Learn English & live in your private teacher's home around Cairns with Home Language International!
Home Language International (HLI) is a family-run business offering language courses in more than 20 languages in over 30 countries worldwide, including English lessons at an experienced private teacher's home in Australia. More than 5,000 students take advantage of our services every year. Ian Josephs, Danielle Josephs, their 5 adult children and an expert team of dedicated staff all put in very long hours for HLI.
You stay in an experienced teacher's family home, have one-to-one English lessons and then continue to use the language during the rest of your stay in Cairns. Because you are the only student, you are guaranteed individual attention. The lessons are completely designed for you, so the teacher will focus exactly on what you need. Mealtime conversation, television and social contacts are all in English.
All of our teachers in Australia have a university degree (or equivalent) and/or a recognised teaching certificate. All teachers have been visited by one of our local organisers. Their qualifications have been checked and their homes throughly inspected. During your stay in Cairns, a local organiser will monitor your progress and make sure your experience is both happy and successful.
Home Language International (HLI) is accredited by the Accreditation Body for Language Services (ABLS), Association of Language Travel Organisations (ALTO), and UNOSEL.

Our computer lab allows you to keep in touch with your family as well as study English on the net as well as in the classroom. We also have wireless access for students.
As part of the Holmes group, Cairns also has options for business courses in Management and Hospitality eight times a year so we can help you into further study beyond English. These courses are a great way to find work in Australia and sometimes lead to more permanent stays in Australia.
Cairns has a tropical climate and so much to do. Our garden courtyard and social program allow a relaxing way to wind down after study. Studying in Cairns is a great way to speak English, advance your business career and enjoy the best of Australia.
