Another fantastic day at Profs HQ where I got the honour of interviewing my past student about his journey with The Profs. Having seen our YouTube channel, Novak entrusted us to mentor him through his application to LSE MSc Finance. Now a proud LSE offer-holder, Novak gave back to our channel by sharing his top tips how to get a life-changing offer from the UK's most competitive course. I can wait to see the video when it's published! 😀 (https://lnkd.in/gZ4wTZik)

🚀🌟Shoutout to Jesitha, our rising star at The Profs!🌟🚀 In just 1 year and 10 months, Jesitha Shankar has BEATEN our 3-year reign of company matching score records and set new benchmarks for excellence. *Our matching scores refer to our client success managers’ ability to connect new students with their ideal tutor and get them started in their journey to academic success.* Jesitha broke not one, but TWO company records in February, achieving the highest weekly matching score of 93 and the highest monthly matching score of 295. And she's not stopping there! Jesitha has matched a new client every working day in 2024, with an incredible streak of 100 consecutive working days (and counting!). Over the past year, she's connected 483 students with 239 tutors, resulting in nearly 7,000 hours of tutoring. Considering that 93% of our undergraduates increase their grades and 75% of our school students exceed their predicted grades (2023), Jesitha’s hard work is directly leading to student success. Jesitha's exceptional performance is always handled with outstanding customer service. So, it’s no wonder why a whopping 30% of our 5-star Trustpilot reviews are attributed to her, setting a gold standard for our 11-person sales team. So, a huge well done and congratulations are in order! Your hard work is equalling excellent results. 🌟 #RisingStar #AchievementUnlocked #TheProfs #Congratulations #employeeappreciation #employeeshoutout #shoutout #goodwork #AcademicSuccess #TutoringExcellence #ClientSuccess
