“I basically grew up alongside ISA. It has been a component of my whole upbringing and will forever have an impact on who I am as a person.”

Meet Sheli Goldis, ISA Class of 2022 graduate who came back to campus in June to share her experiences after graduating from ISA with current Grade 11 students. Sheli is studying International Business Administration and is an Economics tutor at Eramsus Univeristy RSM.

How did your time at ISA impact your life?

I basically grew up alongside ISA. It has been a component of my whole upbringing and will forever have an impact on who I am as a person.

What is your current career, and why did you choose that path? What advice do you have for others looking to enter into your field of work?

I am currently looking to go into consulting. I love problem-solving and working in a small team. I would give a piece of advice to students to be part of MUN, Debate Club or any other service project to exercise teamwork and leadership skills. 

What advice or insights do you have for our current ISA students?

Use calendar tools early, and establish your own routine and way of studying. I would really emphasise that students learn how to study, not only what to study.

The ISA Alumni Spotlight series aims to showcase the journeys of individuals in our student, teacher and parent alumni communities. We ask them to reflect on how ISA made an impact on their life, and to share their advice on how to carry the mission of international understanding.
