Sevde Isteyin - MA Education

Sevde joined the ºüÀêÊÓƵ of Worcester’s MA Education as, having had a background in human resources (HR) in Turkey, she wanted to learn more about coaching and mentoring. 

“Leaving my comfort zone, and being in a different country, may cause some uneasiness for some people.  However, I found an environment at the ºüÀêÊÓƵ of Worcester where new ideas are welcome, there is clear communication and tutors pay special attention to help you realise that you are not alone. Feeling empowered in the field of coaching, I’m beginning my career with steady steps and a clear path.  Im pleased that I joined the MA Education and am starting to reap the benefits.  I would like to give many thanks to everyone at the ºüÀêÊÓƵ of Worcester, especially my valuable instructors who helped to prepare me for my new journey.
