My biggest strength is understanding the learners and their needs. I have always been an approachable teacher and my learners value that. Moreover, because of the years of experience I've had, I have interacted, taught and learnt a great deal from every student. Each learner is different and unique, and so I have successfully managed to tailor my lessons as per the need of the hour. My students love me also because I make lessons fun and interactive. Since I love teaching, it reflects in the way I prepare my lessons and in my teaching methods.
I am an English teacher by profession, with over seven years of experience teaching the English Language including Grammar. I hold CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) from RMIT University along with Masters in English. I have been successful in my teaching and I take pride in being a teacher. I enjoy making a difference in the learner's life through teaching, developing their skills and confidence and it also gives me a level of satisfaction when they achieve their desired goals. Finally, both my leaner and I share the same joy and happiness that comes with improvement.

Perfect! Very kind and patient, Jacqueline was very encouraging to my young daughter who was very nervous about starting with a tutor.
Nikki's daughter is a sweet and soft spoken girl. She was a pleasure to teach as she listened intently, clarified her doubts and rectified her mistakes. Any teacher would be blessed to have a person like her as a student. She has demonstrated the skill of being able to think on her feet. She likes to read, so having grammar lessons around reading and writing will be undoubtedly useful.
Perfect! My children are very happy to learn with Jacqueline. She is very kind, very helpful. They can learn more than their school teacher. So we recommend that she is a good tutor. Don’t hesitate, you can try!
Yingyu has two wonderful and smart boys, who are very expressive. They have a critical mind which is praiseworthy. They enjoyed studying online as much as I enjoyed teaching them. There's no doubt they'll improve with constant motivation and assistance.
I met Jacqueline at an English teacher training course here in Melbourne. Jacqueline is a dedicated and hardworking teacher and attained the qualification with a higher standard compared to others. Her lessons are well planned, engaging and professional. I recommend Jacqueline to all students who would like to improve both academic and general English skills. Her commitment will make your English learning a pleasant journey.
Jaqueline and I completed the CELTA course at RMIT English Worldwide earlier this year. During this intensive course, she displayed both her exceptional teaching skills and experience. She also showed creativity and attention to detail in her work to ensure a quality end product. She has a warm and engaging personality and is confident in her ability. She is a team player who will always help when required. Jaqueline would be a great asset to any teaching organisation and is a pleasure to work with.
Jacqueline is an experienced and highly qualified language teacher who is always passionate about teaching. She is equipped with professional teaching skills in her previous teaching career. She really inspires me a lot in teaching language.
I studied teaching with Jacqueline and she is an excellent teacher with a friendly and patient attitude. She is very hard working and will strive to make your lessons feel enjoyable and rewarding.
