Life, Career & Educational Support Coaching

I have worked in education for 15+ years. I have experience working with a diverse range of students including marginalised teenagers, children and young adults with additional support needs, indigenous communities, older adults and university students. My previous role as a work based learning coordinator involved matching students strengths and skillsets with suitable work placement and job opportunities, getting students work ready including personal and professional development, CV and interview preparation, social and interpersonal skill development. I have experience mentoring young people who are unable to attend mainstream education, this involves goal setting, motivating and supporting young people on their alternative educational journey. I currently work as a lecturer in the area of behaviour change, health and wellbeing studies.

I have a bachelor of science in Health & Leisure studies, a PgDip in Adult and Further Education, Master of Education, Foundation in Coaching studies from the European Coaching and Mentoring Council and I am currently completing a Professional Diploma in Coaching Studies.

I believe the unique combination of my work experience and educational studies make me an excellent candidate to guide young people on their career and education journeys.
