The Institute of Education has assembled a dedicated and highly experienced team to assist our International students.

The international Team is led by Andrew Kearns

The Internatinal Office is managed by:

Jennifer Murray B.A. (Hons) English

Jennifer studied English at University College Dublin and taught the subject for a number of years before joining The Institute of Education in 2005. Jennifer’s main objective is to help students to attain their academic goals at The Institute of Education while making sure that they have a happy, positive experience while at High School in Dublin. Jennifer also qualified as a T.E.F.L. (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) teacher so is acutely aware of the language difficulties students may face during their time at The Institute of Education and can set up relevant support structures for individual students where necessary.

She is the main point of contact for parents and/or sponsors and is always available to discuss student’s progress at school. She believes strongly in getting to know all of the students so that any issues that may arise are dealt with swiftly and without undue stress to the student or their parents. International students are free to call to Jennifer’s office at any time during the school day without appointment to discuss any issues or problems they may be having, be it study related or otherwise. At The Institute of Education we know that parents want to feel comfortable about sending their child abroad to study and Jennifer and the International team always do their best to ensure that students are happy and comfortable leaving them with optimum time for their studies.

Andrew, Jennifer and the International team work together to ensure that our International Students make the most of the opportunity that studying at The Institute of Education provides.
