So, about me …

I lived in UK long enough to start missing the sun, seaside, and good food ( things that make me happy), so now I live in Croatia. And coming back to England when I start missing it. I am a free spirit enjoying the life and happiness.

So, let me start from the beginning.

When I was young, I loved to draw, I liked colors, shapes, everything which is different, and stands out. I wanted to be an architect. So I apply for an art school (secondary school specialised in arts, just few of these for the whole country, so hard to get in). Unfortunately I didn’t get in, I was second in reserves, the first one got in, and me …., well, I didn’t. So then my math teacher said I should go to Gimnasium with increased mathematics which will help me prepare to apply for university of architecture. As I was hesitant if I would like to continue study more mathematics, but not arts, which was my wish, my maths teacher said, she believes in me, and I am really good in mathematics, and should progress in it, so she offer that she prepare all the documentation for me to apply, and I have to only pass the entry exam. Which I did. I’m still grateful to her for believing in me and giving me that confidence that I can achieve my goal just following another path to the same target. That inspired me when I started working as a teacher, to be like her, guide the students, mentor them, and  coaching them helping to achieve their goals.

So then I got my university degree + my teaching qualification. Initially, I wasn’t so keen to study for a teacher, but after I started working as one, I realised how fulfilling that is, to be able to teach, guide and mentor young people, and seeing them achieving their goals, it’s priceless.

After I started working as a lecturer in the university, 2 years down the road I realised that in the next 5 years, there won’t be any significant change in what I’m doing, so the everyday work life was looking like – going to work, going back home and no career development available soon. So then I realised, I don’t want to waste few years. of my life there So I thought it’s time for a change. Although the job I had was really nice and easy, it wasn’t fulfilling enough to make me happy, so I knew it was time for a change.

And then I went to the UK. And I loved working as a teacher, having the degree, qualification and experience, I did try to work as a teacher. But guess what, they didn’t recognise my teaching qualification. So if I would like to work as a teacher in the UK, I had to study 1 year more on top of my Masters degree, and pay quite a big amount of money, which I didn’t have at the moment. So I left teaching for a while, but kept tutoring and mentoring some clients.

And then, in one moment, I realised how many people I can help with my coaching and mentoring experience too, as all the time since I graduated I have been coaching and mentoring friends and students. So I did quite a few training to expand the quality of experience I can provide, and here I am, certified coach, certified counselor, certified teacher.
