Our Team
Welcome to SPC! In recent years I have been the Head of English at another college, an IELTS Examiner, and the principal at a college in Melbourne. Today I am the principal at SPC Brisbane. I believe that learning a language should be fun. The more you enjoy it, the faster you will learn. English will open a door to the world, so enjoy your journey!
Hi! My name is Beyden. I have experience as a teacher in Australia for 10 years. I also taught English in South Korea for 2 years. I have an education degree and a Masters in TESOL. Together, we are building a teaching team that is fun, dynamic and effective. I hope to provide you with a fantastic experience in our school.
My name's Sarah and I'm excited to be one of your English teachers at SPC! I've recently returned to Australia after 5 years teaching English in Cambodia. I like to travel and meet people from different cultures and countries, share stories and exchange ideas, so I hope you're ready to do the same in class, all whilst improving your English of course!

Hi and welcome! I am Ginevra and I take care of Marketing and events here in SPC. Working at SPC is a great opportunity to live with people from all over the World. Cultural exchange is always embraced and celebrated. I believe that a school should provide great classes but also fantastic events post lessons so students can make new friends. Because school and classmates become like a second family, especially when you move to a new and far country. And here at SPC, we perfectly know that.

Arturo
Teacher
Hey Ya'll! My name is Arturo Del-Valle Ruffin. I'm a 90's kid that was born in the US but grew up in Venezuela and bounced back and forth from the US and Spain as a teenager. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish and have a broken sense of Korean. I'm a world traveller with my 3 passports and love different cultures. After being the International Officer at the University of Queensland I wanted to continue engaging and helping others like myself and became an English teacher. I have been teaching for over 5 years in Brisbane and enjoy making the classroom an interesting and dynamic place that you'll look forward to learning in. Always be curious and remember the only bad question is the one you don't ask!

Carl
Teacher
Hi I am Carl. I love teaching English to ESL students. I've taught abroad and Australia for 10 years. I've always enjoyed seeing student's faces light up when that light bulb moment occurs. I'm really into jazz and have a gig or two in the past. I'm also studying health sciences and like to use various scenarios to teach English. English should be a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride!

Margarita
Teacher
Hi, I am Margarita! I was born in Colombia -a fervent country which built my essence- but I often feel that I am from "everywhere a little and nowhere entirely". I have been an English and Spanish teacher for 8 years and I have lived and taught in Colombia, the United States and Australia. I am excited to support and accompany you in your English learning journey and I will do my best for you to apprehend the intricate but also fascinating aspects of this language. Can't wait to see you in class!

Inés
Student Support
Hi, my name is Inés!
I was born in Spain, more precisely in the south of Madrid. There I graduated in primary education and psychopedagogical orientation and intervention.
I consider myself an animal lover. Besides, one of my favorite things to do is to get to know new places and learn about new histories and cultures, that's why I currently live in Brisbane.
I work as a student support at SPC, where I am in constant contact with the students helping them with their accommodation and different concerns. I also create activities every month so that students can enjoy their experience in Australia as much as possible.
I am looking forward to welcoming you at reception and getting to know you better!

I'm super passionate about teaching and I'm here to help you improve your English. I have a master's degree in applied linguistics and a diploma in TESOL. I firmly believe teaching English to you guys should be done in a fun and creative way so that it makes your journey all the more memorable, interesting, and applicable to your day to day life.
