What I'm looking for
I am a doctoral-level Educational Guidance and Counselling professional with extensive experience in teaching, career counselling, administration, and student placement. I have guided about 1,000 individuals and helped 100% of my counseled students secure admissions into tertiary institutions in Nigeria and abroad, while coordinating examinations, training, relocation and public outreach.
I have led schools and educational services as a head of school and managing director, supervised staff, developed guidance programs, trained students for SAT/TOEFL/IELTS/GRE, and served on multiple academic and non-academic committees. I bring strong administrative, research, presentation, and mentorship skills and I am willing to relocate to the United Kingdom, United States, or Canada.
