Student Testimonials

Although SensLearn English is a new school, these testimonials come from learners I have taught throughout my 20-year teaching career. Their experiences reflect the personalised, supportive, and professional approach that is at the heart of SensLearn.

From young learners taking their first steps in English to adults, exam candidates, and fellow teachers, I have been fortunate to work with learners from many different backgrounds—and I am grateful to be able to share some of their experiences here.

Thank you very much to my former students for sharing such kind words!

"Rebecca is an amazing teacher! 

When I first arrived in Australia, I had a good level of English, but I lacked confidence and still had many gaps in my grammar. Rebecca not only helped me fill those gaps, but she also made every class engaging, enjoyable, and easy to follow.

She helped me prepare for the Cambridge exam, and after just three months of study, I achieved a C1 result! I couldn't have done it without her support and guidance.

One of the things I appreciated most about Rebecca was her ability to understand how each student learns best and tailor her teaching approach to their individual needs. She genuinely cared about her students' progress and always went the extra mile to help them succeed.

I highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking to improve their English. She is definitely missed here in Australia!"

"I was a student of Rebecca’s in Perth (Australia), in a course designed to prepare us for the Cambridge Advanced English exam.

I really admire how well she managed to teach a group of people from all over the world, with such different levels of English. Her classes were extremely helpful. I felt well prepared for the exam and learned a lot of new vocabulary and expressions while also overcoming some recurring mistakes I used to make - all in such a short period of time.

However, the best thing was the way she taught—with such passion and a great sense of humor. This helped to keep us all motivated.

Who knew preparing for an exam could be so much fun? She truly is an exceptional teacher!"

"From a nervous student to an English teacher myself!

Rebecca’s lively, empathetic, and humorous teaching completely changed my life. She tailors her lessons perfectly, makes everyone feel seen, and builds your confidence from day one. Thanks to her inspiration, I grew so much that I now work as an English teacher myself!

Her new language school is an absolute win for learners in Switzerland - highly recommended."

"Vom nervösen Schüler zur Englisch-Lehrkraft!

Rebeccas lebendiger, empathischer und humorvoller Unterricht hat mein Leben verändert. Sie geht perfekt auf jeden Einzelnen ein und baut das Selbstvertrauen vom ersten Tag an auf. Dank ihr bin ich so gewachsen, dass ich heute selbst als Englischlehrer arbeite!

Ihre neue Sprachschule ist ein absoluter Gewinn für die Schweiz - echt empfehlenswert!?"

"Hi Rebecca,

You were an excellent English teacher, and I am truly grateful for your patience, encouragement, and dedication to teaching.

When I first started learning English with you, I was at the beginning of my journey in a new country and a new language. Thanks to your teaching, I gradually improved my speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. You always believed in your students and motivated all of us to keep learning. 

Because of your support and guidance, my English improved so much that I was able to get a job and live in Australia as my home. I know that I could not have achieved this without your help.

Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher. Your kindness, professionalism, and passion for teaching have had a lasting impact on me. I will always be grateful for everything you have taught me.

I wish you and your family good health, happiness, and continued success.

With sincere gratitude,

Cleber"

“Rebecca is an excellent teacher, who is clearly passionate about her profession. Her lessons are thoroughly planned, using a range of engaging activities to meet the learners at their levels. Drawing from years of experience working with students from many cultural and social backgrounds, she is aware of differences in students’ individual needs. 

As a teacher trainer, she is a great mentor, able to provide guidance and ongoing support to colleagues. Her feedback is thoughtful and constructive, always aimed at bringing out the best qualities in the teacher and best learning outcomes for the students.“

"Being an English teacher for children with special needs, I was able to take a sabbatical. During that time, I went to Perth, Western Australia to improve my English. 

I was very lucky to be able to join Rebecca’s class. She is the best English teacher I have ever had. Not only were her classes always very well prepared, they were also varied and fun. I learned a lot in this time and, since Rebecca knows German as well, she could explain my mistakes to me. I’ll never forget her saying, “You’re thinking in German” or “That’s German in English words!”.

If I had the chance to join Rebecca’s class again, I definitely would!"

"My name is Marcos. I am Brazilian, and a few years ago I went to Australia to learn English. There, I had Rebecca as my English teacher. I couldn’t have had a better teacher or experience. Rebecca teaches English in a practical way; her methodology works for everyone, no matter their English level. She has incredible knowledge of grammar with an ability to make English sound easy and simple. Without a doubt, she contributed immensely to whom I have became. I passed my IELTS exam, and my English level helped me achieve my career goals overseas and expand my horizons."

"Twelve years ago, when I set off for Australia to spend a year as an au pair, I had no idea just how much this experience would change my life. And amongst the wonderful people I was lucky enough to meet, there was one who meant a great deal to me: Rebecca. 

 At the time, my English was practically non-existent and I wasn’t exactly brimming with confidence when it came to speaking the language. Yet, from the very first moments I spent with her, I felt at ease. She has this incredible ability to put people at ease, without ever passing judgement on their level of English or the mistakes they make.

 With her, learning English becomes something natural, enjoyable and, above all, much more fun! She knows how to make conversations simple and pleasant, whilst helping us improve without us even realising it.

 I am truly grateful to have had the chance to cross paths with her all those years ago. I am, in fact, convinced that, in one way or another, she helped give me the confidence I needed to develop my English. Today, at work, English is my first language, and I certainly could never have imagined that when I met her in Australia.
 It is therefore with great pleasure and gratitude that I recommend Rebecca to anyone wishing to learn or improve their English, and especially to those who are hesitant to take the plunge, lack confidence or are a little shy.

 You can trust her: she’ll put you at ease, encourage you, help you make progress and, above all, make you love learning English.

 A wonderful person, an excellent teacher and someone I’m still grateful to have met, 12 years on."

"Rebecca was my teacher during a Cambridge exam preparation course in Perth, Australia, and those were, by far, the classes where I learned the most and the fastest English.

She had/has an excellent teaching approach and a wonderful ability to adapt her lessons using different exercises and techniques, making sure that learning happens from different perspectives. I still remember how she surprised us every day with games, activities, props, and creative ways of making her classes enjoyable. She made learning feel fun, engaging, and much easier than I ever imagined.

In my experience, as I started gaining a better understanding and stronger skills in English, I also gained confidence in myself. That confidence helped me accelerate my journey towards making English my second language.

Today, around 90% of my daily life is in English, and I still remember Rebecca’s lessons and everything she taught me with great affection and gratitude. She was not only an excellent teacher, but someone who made a real difference in my learning journey.

Thank you, Rebecca"
