About Nan Tien Institute

Nan Tien Institute (NTI) is part of the Fo Guang International University Consortium which is owned by Fo Guang Shan, a humanistic Buddhist order founded in Taiwan by Venerable Master Hsing Yun in 1967. Since its inception, the organisation has grown with temples and schools established in 173 countries.

The English Language School runs General English courses from Beginner to Advanced. Completion of this program at Upper Intermediate level fulfils the English language entry requirement for many vocational training courses.

The school’s English for Academic Purposes course prepares students for study in tertiary education. An acceptable pass in this course fulfils the English language entry requirements for the University of Wollongong degree courses as well as Nan Tien’s own higher education programs.

Being a not-for profit organisation the English Language Centre can offer first class facilities and teaching right in the middle of Sydney at very competitive prices.

The English college is completely secular, run by Australians and employs English-as- first language speaking teachers.

The students come from countries as diverse as Mongolia, Nigeria, Brazil and Japan – everyone is welcome.
