Welcome to
PERTH INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE OF ENGLISH
Greetings from sunny Perth, Western Australia, and welcome to
— Perth International College of English —
an Australian owned and managed English Language School in the
heart of the city.
It has been my belief that the quality of classroom teaching will
always be the best indicator of any successful English Language
school. The priority relationship must be the one between student
and teacher.
It is our commitment at P.I.C.E. to make sure that this relationship
is the prime focus for us all.
Whether learning language skills for further study at University,
Business College or High School, or learning English to help further
a career by passing an exam, or simply learning language for travel
and new experiences, student achievement is our vital concern.
Combining the expert skills of our teachers with the friendly
helpfulness of our counselling and administration staff, students
can be confident that they will experience personalised attention
second to none. At P.I.C.E., we clearly understand that the quality
of our staff reflects our reputation.
As Director, it is my commitment to you to provide the very best of
facilities, the very best homestays, and the very best supportive
learning environment for students.
I truly look forward to welcoming you to P.I.C.E., and invite you to
an experience of a lifetime.
