Deakin University English Language Institute (DUELI) offers a wide range of English language
Overview
courses from beginner to advanced level.
DUELI Melbourne is based at Deakin University’s Melbourne Burwood Campus, Building LA,
Entrance 3, 70 Elgar Road, Burwood VIC 3125.
For information about DUELI’s location, maps and travelling go to deakin.edu.au/campus-
life/melbourne-burwood-campus.
DUELI courses
Courses are integrated and involve the development of reading, writing, listening, and
speaking skills using texts and materials from a wide range of media. A strong emphasis is
placed on helping students become independent learners. We encourage you to develop
your own learning style, set your own goals and draw up your own study plans.
Course progress and assessment
DUELI is legally required to check your course progress to ensure that you are doing well in
your studies. Language skills are assessed throughout the teaching block at regular intervals
so that you can revise your study goals.
There are several assessment tasks within each level, which you must pass in order to
progress to the next level. You must pass the level specified in order to meet the English
language requirement allowing you to enter the intended award study.
Marks are final and cannot be changed. In the case of borderline marks, teachers get a
second opinion from the coordinator before giving you the final mark. However, if you
disagree with your mark you can follow the DUELI Grievance Procedure. Students who have
failed at a given level three times will be unable to extend their study.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism occurs when a student copies somebody else’s work without acknowledging its
author. Plagiarism leads to severe penalties in Australia, as it is an example of academic
misconduct. Teachers at DUELI will explain how to properly reference your work in order to
avoid plagiarism.
