Business Profile

As Director of Studies, I bring together a love for teaching and a vision for meaningful academic leadership. Education is not simply a profession for me, it is a lifelong tool for growth, connection, and transformation. Working with learners of all levels and cultures has deepened my belief in the power of learning to expand perspectives and create change.

My approach to leadership is calm, structured, and people-centred, built on collaboration and trust. I aim to foster environments where teachers feel valued and inspired, and where students are encouraged to reach their full potential.

An artistic background adds creativity to my work, shaping lessons and professional development that spark curiosity, confidence, and genuine engagement with learning. Ultimately, my goal is to guide others towards discovering their strengths and finding joy in the process of education.
