Also known as Tanya, Your_Canadian_Buddy, on Instagram. Nice to meet you!

You'll benefit from what I offer, if you are considering studying in Canada, heard any of the following and suspect that there is more to it:

- it's easy to become a permanent resident in Canada after graduation

- it's easy to find a part-time job

- you can easily change a program/school once you are in Canada

You'll like working with me if you:

- like to make informed decisions every step of the way

- would like to take your future in Canada into your own hands

- have a limited budget and want to use it wisely

You won't like working with me if you:

- like delegating everything to an agent and are not ready to do your part

- you have an unlimited budget and have a room for error

I am here to help you:

- make an informed decision about studying in Canada (where and how to look for a better program selection than agents offer, how to prepare a comprehensive student visa application package, etc. )

- avoid common mistakes

- understand whether studying in Canada is right for you, and if it is,

- take control of your future there

About me

Why I do this

I see my bigger purpose in helping students plan several steps ahead, which I rarely see them do.

Because of this, I've seen many students who:

- struggled with staying in Canada after studying because the program they chose minimized their immigration options

- had unnecessary expenses

- did not follow immigration regulations and could not finish what they started

I am here to minimize the knowledge gap and help students prepare a good plan for their future.

Work experience

I've started my career in international education in 2012, and worked in the following capacities:

- Agent overseas and in Canada, registering students in different educational institutions and helping them apply for a visa

- Admissions Officer at a college in Canada, making decisions on students' applications for program admission

- International Student Advisor at a college in Canada, helping students with settlement and immigration compliance questions

- Licensed Immigration Consultant, advising applicants on their options of staying in Canada permanently

In simple words, I've worked with every aspect that surrounds a student journey from temporary to permanent residence.

Credentials:

- Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant, licensed since 2018

- Diploma in Immigration Counselling, graduated with honors, 2016

- Master's Degree in International Relations, graduated with honors, 2011

P.S.:

I've landed in Canada in 2015 as an immigrant, first in Ontario, and then I moved to Alberta. I fell in love with this beautiful and accepting country, and it is my home now.

I can't say that every aspect of my new life here was easy, but I'm ready to share what I know so that it could be easier for you.

Regardless of how you choose to proceed, I hope your life plans come true.

Warm regards,

Tanya,

Your Canadian Buddy
