Student Testimonials

“After consultations with several school advisers and agents about many different schools, I believed that MEGA was the one that I could rely on for my study overseas. Besides, I trusted that MEGA staff members and trainers are not only professional but also, patient with each international student. I see everyone of school staff is passionate about their responsibilities at MEGA. In my course, Marketing and Communications, I like my trainers Sukesh, Sutida and Shaffy, who are always willing to answer my questions whenever I raised a question about my study. They always listened to all the students and tried their best to help us. I feel lucky that I’ve been with them as an international student here in Australia. And I now feel confident and better prepared to tackle the marketing industry.

I have great unforgettable memories here in MEGA, with my classmates from many different countries and thank my trainers, Sukesh, Sutida and Shaffy for their sincere effort in delivering their lectures, assistance and advice. Besides cultural exchanges with my friends at MEGA made my overseas study here so special. I’m looking forward to my new career and beginning a new chapter in my life after studying here at MEGA in Sydney, Australia.”

When I first started, I was very confused with assessment preparations. But there are many great trainers in MEGA who always supported and motivated me so I am passionate about learning and acquiring new skills and knowledge. I enjoy the communication in the classroom. My course is very helpful, Now at my workplace, I am able to communicate better with customers, know how to make them want to visit Wild Life again and shop more here, which is amazing!

“I have a Master degree at NIDA (National Institute of Development Admission), Thailand. I have been in MEGA for 3 months, I like the friendly atmosphere in the classroom. It makes my learning more enjoyable. My teachers are kind, friendly and helpful and cute! My classmates come from different countries, such as Japan, Korea, Columbia, Chile, Brazil. I’m the only Thai in my class, which means I am forced to speak English. My English skills improved a lot in all areas such as, listening, reading, speaking, and writing. And I felt more confident and braver to speak English now. Before I came to MEGA in Australia, I was too afraid of speaking English so I didn’t speak English at all! I highly recommend to everyone that if you want to seriously improve your English language skill, come to MEGA!”

I was studying in upper-intermediate and EAP classes, and I had more than one teachers. They were all professional and knowledgeable in teaching skills despite their different teaching styles. In addition, activities in my classes were fun! Furthermore, various type of tests prepared by teachers have been helpful and essential improving my English skill. Studying at MEGA improves my English skill in many areas for example writing skill (from essay and mini-essay), speaking skill (group, individual conversation in class or during the excursions), listening skills (from IELTS test, news, and interesting topics), reading skill (from news content paraphrasing, test, book, and interesting topics in the Internet).

Thank you MEGA for improving my English language skill and giving me an opportunity to discover and learn more about other cultures, I am grateful for everything that MEGA has given me.”

“I studied in MEGA for 28 weeks (IELTS for 16 weeks and EAP for 12 weeks). I like the students’ events the most at MEGA. MEGA has weekly excursions, BBQs, special events like Halloween, Christmas Party and Harmony Day. We have a lot of opportunities to talk with students from other countries and learn each others’ cultures. It is also be good speaking practice. EAP class is very small compared to other general English classes, however we have more times to talk to each other and teacher. We can get along easily and form deep relationships. These factors make study more fun for me. I like the MEGA study environment the most. My teacher is a very helpful person. When students have any issues, he is always there to give us advice. In addition, he makes our class more fun, he prepared many activities in the class. His personality is my most favorite thing about him. Studying environment in MEGA is suitable to study English. Friendly teachers and small class helped me study a lot. I haven’t been shy in the school, so it was easy to ask many questions. I’ll go back to my home country and keep studying my economics course in the university. However if I have another opportunity, I would to go to an English speaking country again to have more fun experiences, such as working in multicultural places and improving my English language skill more. Studying at MEGA is useful to my career.

During my internship, I had the chance to work on a variety of different marketing and PR duties such as marketing research, competitive analysis, marketing and promotional plans, promotional material design, copywriting.

Hello, my name is Jun Ogahara from Japan. I have been studying at MEGA with the General English program for four months.

All of the teachers try their best to comprehend students’ stance.

My name is Banu Cidamal and I was born in Istanbul, Turkey. When I was a child my parents moved to Switzerland and I grew up there. I like traveling very much and I like to learn new languages. As a Turkish-Swiss I already speak Turkish and German. I decided to come to Australia to learn English, to get to know new people from all over the world and open my mind for new experiences. I think Australia is beautiful and I’m really enjoying my time in Sydney.

When I arrived in Sydney I was looking for an English school with a very good reputation. I had a look at several websites. I decided to go to Macquarie Education Group Australia because my cousin had studied here and was very satisfied. She recommended the school to me. And I also had a good impression from their website.

I enrolled in the Intermediate course at MEGA. My teachers are really nice and helpful. They are highly educated and helped me to improve my English very quickly. At MEGA I also met a lot of people from all over the world. I not learn only English I also learn lots about different cultures and countries as well, which is very interesting for me. I’ve made some really good friends here.

Me and my friends often join the school’s excursion programme on Fridays. We have already seen a lot of the exciting and interesting places in Sydney and learned much about Australia.

I hope to graduate from my intermediate course soon, so that I can go up a further level of English at MEGA. I really thank my teachers and all the staff at MEGA for all their help.

I wanna tell my Korean friends that there have only a few Korean students and everybody speak English at school. The nationality mix rate is very nice and I can meet with school mates from Europe, China, Japan, South America etc. Classrooms and balcony are very good and clean.
