All North Shore Language Academy teachers have had extensive teaching experience and are well qualified to guide their students through an important but enjoyable language learning experience. Due to the many years of classroom experience in high schools- some teachers are currently teaching in government schools and universities in NSW, all teachers are familiar with the relevant syllabus for students. There are three words to best describe the teaching staff at North Shore Language Academy:

Professional
Committed
Caring

Fun Classes are designed to teach students the most important languages and study skills in an informal and happy environment. They bring a wealth of knowledge to the classroom and have different talents and skills to share with students.

Teachers' profile

Highly qualified native teachers

Teachers at NSLA have either a NSW Teacher’s qualification or a Teacher’s license granted by the relavant government of the language being taught. We do not hire non-qualified working tourists who are not able to create a motivating learning atmosphere, unlike other teaching colleges. Our teachers are so committed, caring and fun that they can easily build an exciting and enquiry-based learning environment for students.
