But how does it come about that a consultant to big business discovers that she has a passion for children with learning difficulties? Here’s how: in the corporate environment Ankia often had to advise employees who were unfulfilled in their jobs as a result of wrong career choices because of poor performance at school, originating from the false belief that certain subjects were simply too difficult, or that there was no assistance in areas that they had perceived as challenging. This stirred a passion to make a difference in children’s lives before they choose subjects or make career choices; a passion to empower them to follow their dreams and broaden their horizons, knowing that they do have the ability and the skills to reach their full academic potential.
