"Hello! My name is Olga and I come from the heart and capital of Russia - Moscow. I speak Russian and English fluently. I graduated from Moscow University with a Diploma in Public Relations which made me realize how interested I am in meeting new people. Needless to say it also helped me improve my communication skills and expand my knowledge in lots of areas. I am very fond of traveling - for me it is learning about different countries so I would call it my way of self-education!

After I graduated I started working in the education industry which has allowed me to learn about other cultures and people. This has also allowed me to develop comprehensive information about the UK and the study options available. I will therefore be able to counsel you about all the benefits of studying there.

Personally I fell in love with England at first sight and I'm sure you’ll feel the same. I will introduce you to the UK with a great pleasure; I will find lots of ways to get you interested in its culture and language! Living abroad is a great opportunity for students to discover other lifestyles and to communicate with lots of people from everywhere and to find your way in the modern world.

I will be happy to assist you with your future studies, so please do not hesitate to get in touch."

John speaks English, Yoruba and little French. Contact him here or ring him on +44 (0)1273 339333.

"Hello! My name is John and I'm from Lagos, Nigeria
Over the past few years, I have worked as a Country Representative in Nigeria for a UK University. Apart from helping students, I also made lots of friends from far and wide and I think this makes my job fun and unique.

I am a graduate of Geography and I enjoy travelling. I've had the opportunity to visit a number of cities within Nigeria and other countries like Togo, Ghana and the UK.

I speak English and Yoruba fluently. Though I got a credit in my ‘O’ Level French, I'm a bit rusty now but I still understand the basics.

Born to a University Professor and a School Teacher, I value strongly the importance of good education. I thus understand the needs of all my students.

With my knowledge and experience, I hope to offer you the best possible service."

"Hello! My name is Linda and I come from China.

I became an English teacher in China after my undergraduate study, and then joined an international company. I felt the desire to travel and decided do my second degree at a UK university. This international experience has made a positive impact on both my personal and professional life.

I have been through the whole process of studying abroad, and I'd like to offer the best possible service to help you achieve your goal of studying abroad. I am very pleased to now be counselling students who are interested in studying at the University of Sussex. I understand it is a big decision to make, but I am sure my knowledge and experience will help you make the right decision.

I speak fluent English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Please feel free to contact me with any queries. I look forward to hearing from you and I will do my best to help."

Radek Falkowski

Contact Radek here

Radek speaks Polish, German and a little Russian, as well as English. Contact him here or ring him on +44 (0)1273 339333.

"Hello! I'm Radek. I find myself here in Brighton, pushed by the urge to travel. In the past this desire has taken me to many different places such as the USA and Germany, where I brushed up on my language and communication skills in German and English.

As I originally come from Poland, I had a chance to learn some Russian at school and then practise it during my short visits to Ukraine and Belarus. Unfortunately, in that language I am far from fluent. I have always found learning languages fascinating, opening the doors to many different worlds, and before I knew it, I became a teacher of English myself.

Now, I'm happy to be a part of a bigger picture - helping people from all over the world learn the most spoken language on Earth. Please feel free to contact me with any queries you might have and I'll do my best to help you."

Kamel Koufi

Kamel Koufi

Kamel speaks Arabic, French and English. Contact him here or ring him on +44 (0) 1273 339333.

Hello! My name is Kamel Koufi and I’m from Algeria.

I have recently moved to the beautiful city of Brighton after living for a few years in London. In addition to my university studies in languages and project management, I’ve previously worked in various roles involving training and education. This helped me acquire a strong knowledge about UK universities and colleges and understand the needs of international students. I also speak fluently Arabic, English and French. I am also tempted to say I speak a little bit of Spanish but not enough (un poco!)

I have travelled a lot and visited many countries and made so many friends. I know most of Middle Eastern and North African countries (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Oman, Lebanon, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt…).

Please feel free to get in touch with me and have a chat about your future studies. I will be more than happy to listen to you and give you the best advice possible for your studies. So, do get in touch!
