When Anastasiia was a teenager, she aspired to a career in journalism, although her studies took her in a different direction. Anastasiia started her professional journey in hospitality, which allowed her to live around the world – in Switzerland, Jamaica, Egypt, China, Singapore, Greece and Ukraine. She then gradually transitioned into an administrative role in a British education setting and has been developing in this field since 2017.

Like many of our students and their families, Anastasiia values the ability to work remotely: “The expat lifestyle and being able to travel means that I now have friends all over the world, and luckily a remote work environment is perfect for me!” Anastasiia also enjoys being part of a school led by a team of dedicated and professional women, where both teacher and student bodies are diverse and inclusive.

Anastasiia loves to be busy and has lots of interests outside work. “I am a proud Jewess, and my heritage is invaluable to me. I try to lead a wellness-centred lifestyle, with balanced nutrition, regular workouts and a mindful approach to life; I really enjoy learning languages, playing tennis and reading. Cooking is not my strongest suit, but luckily being married to a chef solves the problem quite nicely.”
