Teacher profiles

Hi, Im Hilary and Ive been working at SELC since 1995! Before joining SELC

I spent several years teaching and studying in Japan, and Ive also learned

French and recently started studying Spanish, so I understand how difficult it

can be for language learners sometimes.

Ive taught on all the different programs that we offer at SELC. Im also an Oral

Examiner for the Cambridge Speaking Exams, which means that I can give

students useful advice for the exam!

Im now Head Teacher at SELC, so I get to meet all the students and help new

students to settle in. It also means that I liaise with all the teachers and other

staff to make sure that things run smoothly and that students and teachers are

happy. This gives me lots of variety in my job, and thats great!

Our teachers are all well qualified

and take part in an ongoing

professional development program.

SELC has staff with many years

examining experience for the major

international English language tests.

SELC students consistently achieve

excellent scores in the IELTS, TOEFL,

TOEIC and Cambridge tests.

Student profiles

I started teaching 10 years ago in Sydney. I went travelling to

Europe and taught for a year in London, then I went to Spain and

spent three years in Barcelona and Bilbao. While I was there I took

Spanish lessons, so I know how it feels to be a stranger in a foreign

country and to struggle with the language.

I think during my career I have taught every single type of class

there is General and Business English, EAP, Cambridge, IELTS

and TOEIC, to all levels! My favourite is Cambridge because I like

teaching students who are motivated and keen to learn, and also

because we become a little family for twelve weeks; we work hard

and play harder!

I love living in Sydney because its a vibrant, exciting place with

plenty to do in the evenings and at weekends, and of course there

are lots of beaches nearby to enjoy!

I really enjoyed the range and quality of the SELC elecve courses I

took during my General English course. I was able to learn English in

an interesng and focused way and made fr iends and met teachers

from other classes. I think its a great idea to have a full-day elecve

course each Wednesday and theres enough variety to choose a

dierent one every new term.

Wellbeing English for Health, Fitness and

Wellbeing is for students who have

an interest in health and fitness

and would like to learn the practical

skills and English they need to

help them to improve their overall

wellbeing. The course provides an

excellent foundation for further

study in these areas.

Ive always been interested in health and tness and pracsed a lotof sport in my home country, and my impression is that Australians

love being healthy and living the outdoor life. When you are a student

you dont always get the chance to be as healthy as you want, and

when I heard about this course, I was really excited to know that I

could improve my English and also increase my awareness of health

and wellbeing at the same me.

An individual counselling service is available in the second week

of every term. Each class member has the opportunity for a one-

to-one consultation with their teacher regarding their English

progress. This session provides opportunities for the teacher

to give feedback on each students strengths and weaknesses

as well as allowing students to ask questions regarding the best

way to meet their individual English requirements.

Students can also make an appointment with the Educational

Counsellor for more help and advice on how to make progress

in English.

2. Personal counselling

Aside from academic counselling, students who study in

a foreign country away from their home sometimes need

additional support. Bert, our Student Counsellor, is available to

assist students with issues that can arise when settling into a

new culture.

For me, one of the best things about studying at SELC was

all the great extra activities. There was always something

on and I went to a lot of welcome parties, harbour cruise

parties and BBQs at the beach with SELC students and

teachers. These and the organised soccer and beach

volleyball games are a great way to relax and make friends

outside the classroom. I had the time of my life!
