I had plenty of opportunities to practice my English in a variety of situations, such as discussion classes, doing seminar presentations or working in a team on a group project. There was of course a lot of chatting in my host family aswell ;-)
Therefore, my overall language experience could have hardly been any better!

at first I was having difficulties with the local language, since australian speak pretty fast and use a lot of jargon and slang so I need extra work to adapt with them, watching local TV show and interact with local people more,and after 6 month I've been here I'm starting to cope with that

My native language is American-English. It was enriching to hear the English language manipulated with the Australian accent and sometimes I really found it difficult to understand. I spoke to many international students while studying and improved my interpersonal communication skills.

Since the language was English and I already speak it I had no trouble communicating, I did learn a lot of local slang terms unique to Australia that was very interesting.

Language communication was not a problem for me, but there were a few cultural communication differences but it was enlightening and made for interesting conversation.

It is all in English -- there were no language barriers. It is imperative that you attend tutorials, as instructors are not the primary coursework evaluators
