I spent around 20 years working in the English Language Teaching industry as a teacher, teacher trainer and examiner. Most of my teacher training was overseas, 12 countries in total, on CELTA and DELTA (Level 7) qualifications. My main area of experience was delivering teacher development and teacher training to teachers around the world and providing consultancy to organisations like British Council.

With over ten years’ experience of working in higher education professional services, my main responsibility at Bloomsbury Institute is to monitor students’ engagement to enable students’ participation, retention and success. I achieve this through the utilisation of students’ engagement data, putting students at the heart of what I do and adding a more human touch to the student experience. This is supported with the use of policies, processes and data. My role in Student Engagement Success and Wellbeing has further enriched my experience.
My experience includes working in Initial Enquiries at University of Westminster, Admissions at the Institute of Education and Assessments at UCL. My experience involves working with diverse teams, implementing and policing of academic regulations, managing communications and QTS recommendations with the NCTL, coordinating cases of assessment irregularities, processing CAS and reviewing and improving operational processes. I believe in quality student experience provision and education for all.
Interests
The UK “self-harms” its reputation, position in the international student market, economy and its HE industry. This is through the introduction of barriers such as stringent UKVI regulations, scrappage of post-study visa, tuition fees increase and the impact of BREXIT. With HE industry in constant flux, universities are forced to adapt, merge or simply not survive. I have developed a passion for project management within HE.
I have always had great interest in World War 2 (WW2), its causes and post-war impact. I believe WW2 should be included in schools’ curricula, lest generations forget and ignore or tolerate similar signs.

After graduating from The University of Wroclaw in 2006 with a Masters in Sociology, and working as an Events Manager for a decade, I decided to travel the world, walking off the beaten path and experiencing a host of different cultures which eventually landed me in Sydney, Australia for three years where I worked and studied.
After this time, I decided to come to the UK where I realised that, due to my own experiences, my calling was to work in education and attempt to provide the kind of excellent service that every student deserves.
I have been at this institution since 2013 where I spent five enjoyable years working in the Registry Division, assisting a plethora of students with their administrative needs. In January 2017 I discovered my true calling by commencing studies in a Counselling qualification, prompting a move into the Centre for Student Engagement, Wellbeing and Success where I have been able to engage my empathy and passion to assist students and ensure their success in my capacity as Student Wellbeing Advisor.
