I'm calm and supportive, great listener who can understand what is really going on in person's life

My key skills are: listening, communication, goal-setting, motivation, organisation and helping people find realistic solutions when they feel stressed or stuck. I am also experienced in supporting international students through academic decisions, transitions and periods of pressure. I have more than 10 years of experience working with international students, their families as well as schools and tutors in the UK. I helped families understand what kind of academic support a student needed, communicated with schools and tutors, and helped organise the right support around them. Back in Belarus I worked as an English Language teacher at the university where I was also heavily involved in pastoral support.
