Meet our academic team

“We approach things so the students can relate the work they’re doing to real-life applications. We give them transferrable skills they can take with them – not just to further study, but to employment.”

“I've had a lot of really good feedback from students about how working with me on presentations has helped to elevate their confidence, which is always wonderful to hear.”

Garry Paton 

English for Academic Purposes Teacher 

“I always encourage students to bring forward their own experiences and viewpoints. Everyone is from a different cultural background, so I think it’s important to bring that to class and learn something new.”
