Rachel Mosel: Director of Studies

I have been fortunate enough to work at a number of different language schools in many countries during my career as an English teacher and GEOS Melbourne is definitely the most professional and enjoyable of all these experiences. All the staff really care about the welfare and development of the students and create a caring environment in which students thrive. I feel very lucky to be part of the GEOS team.

Cameron Winton: ILC Coordinator

I have taught English in Spain, and now for GEOS for over 2 years. It is the most enjoyable, and professional school I have worked in.

My role in the ILC is to ensure each student gets personalised instruction, and to provide great resources for them to improve their English skills.

Chelsea Bernal: Senior Teacher

I became an English teacher because I was looking for something different.  I’ve stayed an English teacher because it’s such an interesting field filled with fantastic opportunities for finding out about cultures from all over the world.  Working at GEOS is perfect for this because of the excellent range of nationalities.  Teaching here is a little like travelling to a different country each day.

Carmen Stehle: Senior Teacher

Originally from Canada, I now call Australia home. I first came to Australia in 2002, as an international student at the University of Melbourne. Not long after that I went to Japan, where I taught English for two years. I've travelled to countries in Europe, Asia and the Americas, As well as English, I teach French, speak Japanese and hints of Aussie!

I am privileged to be part of the professional and caring team at GEOS. Our experienced and dedicated staff are passionate about providing you with quality education and making your experience here truly unforgettable. I look forward to meeting you!
