Leane Meiring
CertTESOL Student
I have worked for Oxford International for 18 years and done a variety of roles from Director of Studies, Course Director for the Trinity Cert TESOL, Tutor on the Trinity Diploma and ELLT examiner. I have enjoyed being in a growing company and appreciate having new opportunities because of this culture. In 2020 I helped move the Trinity Cert TESOL online. This has been lots of fun and highly successful. It makes a lot of sense in our industry nowadays to be logging in and training people all over the world including Indonesia, Burundi, Pakistan, Macau, Iran to name but a few.
