Bio
Aline Silvestre
I have the pleasure to have Maria as my student for the Advanced Diploma of Marketing course at Laneway Education. Maria is a great student and professional, she's very dedicated, committed and she learns really fast. She's also very focused and always applies what she learns in class in real life. The whole program is delivered in English, and even though this is Maria's second language, this is definitely not a barrier. She has excellent communication skills in both spoken and written English. She's a great leader, team player and she's also great on presentations and project work. I highly recommend Maria, any team wi be very lucky to have her on board.
