Neil McCarthy
Head Teacher
Hi everybody, my name is Neil, I am from Cork, in the south of Ireland.
What do I like about teaching? The opportunity to "roll my sleeves up" and find out exactly what each learner needs in order to meet his/her goals. Everyone has a different strength and weakness and that keeps the job interesting!

Hello! I’m Jess and I’m originally from Wales, UK. I also lived in London where I did my doctorate and worked in the field of clinical psychology. However, after moving to Austria in 2016, I decided to change my career path to teaching English. My passion for languages has grown ever since.
What do I like about teaching? I love working collaboratively with people, supporting them to become more confident and helping them achieve their individual goals.

Eckard Nieman
Teacher
Hi there! I was born and raised in South Africa where I grew up with an affinity for learning languages. In 2013, I decided to move to Austria but it wasn't until much later that I discovered that teaching is something I love doing just as much.
I have found that being able to play a role in helping others to unlock their language skills is extremely rewarding and something I enjoy doing every day.

Ross Alexander Thompson

Teaching for me is as rewarding as it is for the student.
There is nothing more satisfying than seeing a person "get it" when the light goes on.

Michael Connors Jackman, PhD
Teacher
I'm originally from Newfoundland (Canada), and I've spent the last few years living in Germany and Austria. I teach all levels of English, but I'm most keen on speaking, academic writing, and exam preparation for C1 and C2 levels. As a lifelong learner, I enjoy books, museums, studying languages, finding out about different cultures, and meeting new people.

John Hess, MA
Teacher
Greetings ! It's my pleasure to now be living in beautiful Vienna after almost twenty years of work in the field of ESL instruction, mainly in France.
It's a job I really love, meeting people of various backgrounds and professional situations, and doing what I can to help them reach their goals in the use of English.
Hope to see you soon !

Francesca Williams, BA
Teacher
Hello! I am from the South of England. I have lived in Austria since 2019. I love the country! The history, the culture, and of course the skiing!
I have been teaching English since 2019, I took the CELTA in the UK and then moved to Austria as soon as I could! I enjoy teaching adults and younger learners, and I have experience with both. My favourite thing about teaching is being able to help people build their confidence and achieve their best, whatever their goal may be!

Aglaia Rodriguez-Torres, MBA
Teacher
Hi everybody, my name is Aglaia, I am from Canada.
With respect to teaching English, there is nothing more rewarding than witnessing a student's smile as the lightbulb finally goes off - and knowing that, on the tiniest of scales, you were somehow involved in making that spark ignite.

Elisabet Rhoden, MA
Teacher (currently on parental leave)
Hi everybody, my name is Elisabet and I come from the United States of America.
What do I like about teaching? English and grammar have been my hobby and passion my whole life. Teaching English is a great way for me to combine something I enjoy while helping others improve as well. I especially enjoy the interaction between student and teacher and being able to show the "fun side" of the English language.
