KATY GOUGH
ACADEMIC COORDINATOR CELTA in 2003, yay! Jet off to Portugal for 12 years, yay! Work with several British summer schools, meh! I was a little apprehensive when I was taken on as a full-time teacher with UKLC in 2015. However, right from the induction day, I knew this was different. It was professional, organised and above all, welcoming. Everyone was just so lovely! There’s a buzz, it’s fun, supportive and friendly. UKLC’s mission is to educate, inspire and enrich the lives of young people, well I think that ethos extends to everyone they work with!
There is nothing more rewarding than to hear students say, “I’ve learned more in this one week than a whole year back at school!”. I’m proud to be part of the team that gives students this unforgettable experience and I’m looking forward to seeing where my new role as Academic Coordinator in head office will take me!
