Why did you choose Leeds / Leeds Met?
I chose to study in the UK because I planned to start my own international training consultancy company and I wanted to study abroad and improve my English. When I was searching for a university, Leeds Met looked welcoming and inclusive so I made my choice to come here.

My first impression of Leeds Met proved my research correct as it was very welcoming when I first arrived on the beautiful campus. My most rewarding experience at Leeds Met so far is undertaking the masters’ degree of my studies.

Scholarship
My husband and children were really happy and proud when I found out I had won a scholarship to Leeds Met! Winning this scholarship was also a little economic relief to my family and it was wonderful to have my achievements recognised by the university.

Aspirations for the future
After I graduate I hope to open my own international training consultancy based on my fifteen years of management experiences with the expertise and professional knowledge from my studies at Leeds Met. I may also consider working for a PHD degree in this field in the near future.
