Julie Lehner came to the programme with a lot of expereince as a teacher, teacher educator and CELTA and Delta tutor.
Although she'd already dabbled in video making, she wanted the motivation and the accountability that a group programme would provide to help her in her existing work and kickstartnew business.

Jane Turner works as an EAP tutor at Anglia Ruskin University but is also a materials writer  and wanted to expand this part of her professional life to create a video based self-access course for students to help them develop their academic  vocabulary.  She says 'It's worth it!'

Hadrian Harris has had an interesting life. After working as an audiologist for a number of years, at 67 he retired but decided that it wasn't time to stop doing something useful and fulfilling. He did CELTA and then learnt how to make engaging video and is setting up his own online teaching business that he plans to run from the sun in Spain.

Genevieve White has had a long career as a teacher and a materials writer, but as she branched into teaching copywriting, she realised she would need video making skills to increase her business' visibility.
This one you HAVE to see - it's a testimonial in rap form! 

Dita Phillips is a  teacher, teacher trainer, CELTA tutor with a wide range of experience over a number of years but family commitments and a move to Luxumbourg made her rethink her teaching focus. Being a woman whose first language isn't English and having overcome the barriers that this threw up, she is planning to work with women in business to help them grow the confidence that she has developed herself.

Craig Branch started his teaching life in South Korea but ended up settling in Dortmund in Germany teaching a wide range of different students. He came to the VoiCE programme with a background in podcasting, his first love, and a desire to take this further, using video to make online courses to sell and earn more of a passive income as well as attract new learners. 

Elham was the recipient of the scholarship place that I offer on every course to increase the reach of the programme. She is from the Kurdish part of Iran, and teaches in a middle school as well as offering teacher development to other teachers in her area. Her objective was to increase the reach of her ideas but also to create an English exam revision programme aimed at students in the Iranian school system. 

Linda was the recipient of the first scholarship place that I offered in 2021. She is from the Mexico and during the covid lockdowns began to develop a programme to help Indiginous Mexicans to develop skills for them to teach Spanish as a Second Language. Video making has enabled that to expand and she found the course really enlightening as background knowledge of how the YouTubers she'd been watching achieved such professional results.

Nicola is a teacher, trainer, materials writer, writer of fiction and an amazing person.... but she has always hated being on camera.
VoiCE gave her the nudge and the confidence she needed to make great video that she's used to develop her online programmes at her website 'The Chilled Investor'.
