When I was in my last year of university I was really unsure of what direction my life and career was going to go in. By chance I happened upon Aurelia’s presentation about teaching in the UK.

They talked a lot about their Canadian community overseas and the ability to travel, which really appealed to me.

Aurelia supported me every step of the way, from picking what location in the UK fit my goals and aspirations through the Visa process and then settling into my new home. I can happily say I'm going on to my third year teaching in the UK and I don't think I would have had such a positive and stress-free experience if it wasn't for Aurelia.
