Dear Valued Partners,
Welcome to the Greenwich College September 2007 newsletter. This month we would like to introduce Natalie (who is currently teaching in Thailand), and Teacher Trainer testimonials of recent Greenwich College graduates.

"….. I work for Samsung as an English teacher and have my own English school (actually small size school with my friend and we teach in our house so kind of a special-private school)"
Kyoung (Certificate IV in TESOL)

"….. you are one of the best teacher of mine in my whole life.
When I was a student, I had just dreams to be a great teacher, so I did do my best for that. ….. one of my dreams came true. I became an English teacher. I think I like to teach and share time with my kids... ^^
I can use many teaching skills in Greenwich and my boss likes it (He said I`m the best in his school~ ^^;;; --> Need humble myself....). I`m thinking I can`t do it without your help. It` was very helpful to learn from Greenwich to settle in department of education in Korea.
Thank you so much~~ *^o^*
P.S - Naomi and Anna became English teachers as well."
April (TECSOL and Certificate IV in TESOL)

“I have great news!!! I got a job as an English teacher. :-) I applied for three English schools....But I was made an offer from two schools. One of them is AEON which is big company. The other one is Stampee English school”

February 2008
Dear Valued Partners,
Welcome to Greenwich College February 2008 newsletter.
In this edition we would like to introduce you to Zoe, our EAP teacher and also to our NEW evening IELTS course.

Greenwich Teacher Profile (EAP)
Ms. ZOE HANCOCK
Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting), CELTA, Master of Applied Linguistics
Zoe Hancock was born in Country New South Wales and went to high school in Wollongong. She studied a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) at University of Wollongong.
After she graduated she decided to go to Japan to teach English. She loved living in Japan and stayed there for 4.5 years. While she was there she realized that she had a passion and a talent for teaching English, so she studied her CELTA (teaching certificate) when she returned to Australia.
She began teaching at an English college in Sydney. However she decided she wanted more of challenge, so she moved to the University of New England to teach English for Academic Purposes (EAP).
Zoe loves teaching EAP because all of her students are motivated to learn academic skills. She prepares her students to study at an Australian university. She gives her students not only the linguistic, but also the cultural skills to succeed in the Australian university environment.
Zoe co-wrote Greenwich's Certificate IV in EAP and is very excited to be teaching the first course.
Greenwich has articulations with both University of Wollongong and the University of New England. Zoe will be able to give students very useful advice about studying at these universities as she studied and worked at them.
Zoe has also taught on the certificate IV in TESOL course at Greenwich and recently graduated from her Masters of Applied Linguistics course at the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS).
She looks forward to teaching our EAP course and helping more students go to universities in Australia.
