Hi! I’m Dominika! I am an Academic Coach for Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I have a Bachelor’s degree in English as a Foreign Language and ESL from the University of Warsaw, a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Communication from Collegium Civitas, and a Master’s in Sociology from Collegium Civitas. I trained with Dr. Jose McClendoll at the Neuroenconing Institute to become a Neuroencoding Specialist. I have over 12 years in education in a variety of settings including as an adjunct professor, teaching all ages of students EFL, and as a refugee teacher. I believe school is important because it teaches certain ways of adjusting to the general norms and if it is a great school it teaches life skills with the ability to perform critical thinking. It also exposes the student to different views and ways of thinking.
