Emily Yip

As the manager of my counselling team for over 10 years, I have overseen numerous successful and touching cases from my students, as well as their parents. Our duty as education consultants is more challenging than ever, as we need to become mediators, secretaries, social workers, and even financial planners help our students better. However, at the end of the day, the heartfelt thank you from my student is the greatest satisfaction I receive from my job.

Fred Leung

Having studied in the UK since GCSE’s, I have a lot of experience in what students should know when studying abroad, including tips to overcoming cultural shock, combatting homesickness, and making most of their student life overseas. Since joining IDP in 2012, I brought with me a wealth of experience in international education to help students gain perspective and explore more options.

Polly Cham

I have worked in IDP for many years and am familiar with studying in Australia, UK, USA, Canada, and New Zealand. I have visited numerous colleges and universities in the UK and Australia and understand the education system and learning environment. By actively listening to the needs and desires of students and parents, I help them find the course that best matches their study goals.

Vanessa Yan

I pursued my high school and post-secondary studies in Canada, and it was one of the best times of my life. For the past 10 years or so of living in Canada, I’ve become acquainted with the studies in Canada and its culture. I’d be more than happy to advise students on appropriate institutions and programs tailored to their needs with my personal experience.

Carina Shek

I completed my foundation course and bachelor’s degree in the UK and aspire to help students to get into their ideal universities with my personal experience and knowledge. Skilled in research and communication, I am always ready to address any concerns parents and students may have.

Georgia Cheung

I completed my master’s and bachelor’s degree in the UK and have an in-depth knowledge of boarding schools and art institutions. I'd be more than happy to share the insights and experience as an international student to parents and students.

Halley Lai

Finished tertiary studies in the US and Canada and used to travel around Iberia and Eastern Mediterranean with cultural and societal academic studies. Well-knowledgeable with European cultures and society. Urging to provide international students with customized and heartful counselling services.

Heidi Li

Having completed my secondary studies and bachelor’s degree in the UK, I am familiar with the English education system. My experience growing up in the UK for over 20 years has prepared me to provide a range of native cultural and lifestyle insights for students. I aim to inspire students in their motivation for studying abroad and create a positive and helpful counselling experience.

Timothy Ma

Having completed my bachelor’s degree in Australia, I fully understand the emotions and needs of international students. I wish I could assist students to carve the most suitable overseas education journey according to my own study abroad experience.

Venus Chan

I have been to Australia on a working holiday, where I interacted and communicated with people of different ages from various countries. This experience helped me understand the confusion faced by international students living abroad. Maintaining an open attitude became a bridge of communication between parents and students. I am dedicated to assessing the needs of all parties involved and providing professional advice on further education, as well as assisting students in finding the most suitable opportunities for overseas studies.
