SENIOR COUNSELOR

When applying for higher studies abroad, students should have access to information for making rational decisions. Mr. Bijay Shivakotee has been lobbying industry stakeholders since 1996. Mr. Shivakotee has collected a wealth of experience in market research and enriched it with unique market characteristics for counseling students. Moreover, he is also one of the very few sought-after professionals and probably the first IELTS, PET, TOEFL, SAT, GRE & GMAT tutor in Kathmandu. His unique art of instructing has made him conspicuously stand out as an instructor, not to mention his appreciable experience of having taught those as mentioned above since the spring of 1996 A. D. Hundreds of thousands of his students have finished their graduate programs a long ago from the USA, Australia, Canada, and other countries abroad, some of them have just finished, and some are about to end. His emphasis on proper planning, training, setting standards for job roles and responsibilities, and laying a defined work process has helped build a solid foundation for quality service at Westford Education.

Ms. Chintu Shrestha, with an attribute intrinsic to a counselor, has 15 years of experience as a sought-after abroad study counselor. Graduate in Business Marketing and Sociology, she has profound knowledge not only in social perspectives in higher education but also the business about the educational sector. Ms. Shrestha’s skill at understanding the students’ interests and future demands of intended programs by the time they graduate and delivering authentic information has remarkably benefitted many students. Her enjoying the deadlines and being meticulous about every single case, Ms. Shrestha is considered one of the best counselors by Nepalese students wishing to study abroad.

Ms. Rita Parajuli is a well-known professional in the education consultancy business in Nepal because of her amicability and humility, in addition to her experience long enough in this field.

He is very experienced in advising students in selecting programs compatible with their academic curriculums, interests, and concerns and guiding them through the application,acceptance, preparation, departure, and re-entry stages.
