For the last 25 years I have been engaged in the industry of international education. In 1996 I founded an educational agency Aspect in Keiv that provided expert educational advice to students regardless of their age and aids them in the selection of educational programs all over the world.
After working for many years in the industry of international education, I concluded that of all the things that parents can give to their children the most valuable is a gift of education. In achieving that you will find that nothing is as important as selecting a right secondary school for your child.
Over the past decade, I have been deeply studying the differences in secondary education systems, the prospects for graduation from schools in different countries, attending conferences on secondary education and the schools themselves, in order to get a personal impression of the territory, getting acquainted with the leadership and communicating with foreign students.
Being focused on secondary schools, I am constantly on the road, as I live between three countries and the schools, with which I want to get to know each other, are scattered across different continents and to visit each of them is very important. Choosing the right school for each family is a big responsibility for both parents and the consultant.
We choose the child not only walls - we choose friends who will remain reliable connections for life. We choose a country in which the child will probably continue his higher education. We choose a program that will help shape the character and values.
The most popular secondary education in the world today is an English-language education, and therefore, in my blog, I mainly talk about such schools.
I share my experience, how to choose a country and school for my child, when and how to file documents for enrollment, what requirements, how to organize a trip and what will give you confidence in your child's safety while in another country.
Having said so, I understand that no articles would replace live communication and impression.
Therefore, I will always find time for every family, regardless of your place of residence (modern communications allow you to be acquainted and communicate to people from different parts of the world and I speak fluently 4 languages) to learn your wishes and understand your child.
I hope that my knowledge will be useful to you and help you choose the best school for your child.
