 Testimonials

David Wallace, Careers Education Officer, Hillview School, Kent, UK


"Cindy had a very positive influence on students and staff she worked with at the school and she has kept in close contact ever since, typical of her dedication to improving her own practice. Her time was spent in careers education work, with students of all abilities – in individual support and guidance and group activities. She has a natural empathy with young people, and can engage students of all abilities. She displayed the patience, commitment and understanding required when working with some of our lower ability students, and they reflected a very positive response to her work. She has a good understanding of modern educational goals, and fits very naturally into a team. She plans, delivers and evaluates well, with good record-keeping.” 

Bridget Elinson, Connexions governmental agency for careers in education and personal advising services, Kent, UK

"All staff who had contact with Cindy spoke highly of her.  She is a great reflector and asked insightful questions.  She used her time effectively to find out as much information as possible when on placements.  She integrated well in the group works that she observed and respected the interaction between student and Personal Advisor within one to one observations.  When offered to add any advice her knowledge and performance added to a positive experience for the student."

Marilou Seavey, Co-founder and lead Trainer, Mindbridge Training, NLP and Coaching, North Carolina & UAE

My Motivation

This work to teach and guide young people and parents is my purpose, my driving force. Most importantly, it keeps pushing me to achieve bigger and better things with each new challenge.  I thrive in International settings with a passion for looking at Education through a Futuristic and Global view.

 American International School, UAE:

"I learned from Ms Cindy's Careers Interview to look at my Career from a different perspective.  

Its important to see the other points of view and look at them.  Most of all I learned that it doesn't matter much what people want me to be.  

It's what "I" want to be."
