Oksana recently completed an ESOL Entry 3 training course provided by ATN in Stevenage. Oksana chose ATN because the course was a good fit for her language development needs. On the course she enjoyed the level that she was taught at, the teaching style, location and content of the course. She is now planning to continue studying and build upon her language skills in the fields of management and marketing. The course has been very helpful for Oksana, allowing her to understand native speakers faster and more fluently and find a job. Oksana has also noted that the course has removed the communication barrier that she previously had.

The participant was referred to ATN by the Ealing Job Centre. ATN contacted the client and invited her for enrolment. She is originally from Afghanistan and she arrived in the UK in 2009. An IAG was completed with her and during the IAG session she explained that she initially was enrolled on an ESOL course but due to the pandemic she left the programme due to health issues. She was struggling with coping with day to day activities. The CAF programme was deemed suitable for her as it covered elements such Digital Skills, Mental Health and Well being, employability etc. She was keen to enrol on the programme as she felt that the programme met her needs.
She started attending the class regularly and was making good progress. She was coping well in the class. Her mental health and well being improved and there was a significant improvement in her confidence levels too. She was also very keen to enrol on a classroom assistant’s course as she previously had volunteered and had worked as a classroom assistant. She was made redundant and had been unemployed for about 2 years.
She was empowered to progress herself and wanted to get back into work as a classroom assistant. She started volunteering for a local provider. Whilst volunteering, ATN referred her to a free Level 3 Qualification for ESOL Teachers, Volunteers and Teaching Assistants. She successfully enrolled on the course and is working towards completing the programme successfully.
Having spent 3 years in the UK since moving from Russia in 2020, Atikat first arrived at ATN in 2021 where she was introduced to regional manager Kamaljit and Jojy. Atikat started with a pre-entry course so that she would understand the basics of English better and then later progressed onto Entry 1,2 & 3 in ESOL skills for life. After improving her English, Atikat then continued to improve her skills by completing a level 1 IT course and Functional skills in ESOL level 1. When arriving at ATN she felt very insecure about herself but this was changed with the help of the teachers and staff who always made sure that she was supported. Since being at ATN she drastically improved her confidence and never had any negative emotions towards herself whilst at ATN. With her now having improved her English and skills she is more open to learning new things and is grateful for all the hard work in which the teachers and staff at ATN provided along with their hard work and professionalism. Now Atikat has been able to find herself a role as a sous chef and was especially thankful to Kamaljit who supported her during her time here and to show her gratitude she baked a cake for Kamaljit and the ATN family.
