Senior Teacher - Janice King has also been teaching the English for Academic Purposes class at AICOL for many years. Janice is a highly qualified teacher. Her enthusiam and love of teaching is contagious and many of our students owe their excellent academic records in language tests to her personalised attention. See testimonials.

Accounts - Maha Hasan joined us at AICOL at the beginning of 2010. Maha is originally from Iraq and has a batchelor degree in accounting from Iraq and a Batchelor of Business and Public Finance from Griffith University. Unlike most English Language schools, at AICOL we hold student visa tuition fees and homestay monies in our trust account and draw down tuition fees weekly AFTER the lesson has been delivered.

Reception - Christine Yang is our super-friendly receptionist.

She is an Australian university graduate and is personally familiar with issues faced by international students.

All AICOL homestays are personally inspected by us and we closely monitor all homestay placements.
