London Greenwich

Kris Hall, School Principal

Hi fans! As the Principal of Oxford International English London Greenwich, my job is actually very easy. I work in a fantastic, very modern school, with a brilliant team of teachers and staff who all share the same vision – which is to make sure all our students improve their English skills and have a great time in London. Greenwich is also my favourite part of London – it’s only 8 minutes by train from London Bridge, is designated by UNESCO as a world heritage site and is full of lovely little shops, café’s and bars that are great places to spend your free time while you’re here.

I have been the Principal for 5 years. I studied Management at the University of Westminster and have a post-grad. in Managing Health and Social Care. Prior to working here I was the Service Manager for a pan-London NGO for 7 years – so achieving excellence in service delivery is second nature to me!

Mo Tighsazzadeh, Social Programme Manager

Apart from the difficult surname, I also have the most difficult job in the school. My job is to go out with the students! I organise the Social Programme for the school … and you normally cannot find me in the office, and that’s either because I was out late the night before or I’m in my pharmaceutical laboratory.

I have been doing this job for the past 5 years and know London like back of my hand; and that brings us to the famous saying of “Better Call Mo” if you’re in London or planning your visit.

Kim, School Administrator

Hi I’m Kim, I’m new to the team and very excited to be a part of the Oxford International English family. I work in the reception so will be your first port of call for all things. Registering as a new student or fancy doing something exciting on the social program? Then I’m your woman! Born and raised in France, I’m bilingual, but don’t let that scare you, a smile is a language we can all understand. I currently live in London and am trying to take in all the wonders that this great city has to offer. You’ll find me sitting at the front desk at our Greenwich head office, I look forward to meeting you!

Daniel Tourt, Director of Studies

Hi, my name is Daniel and I am the Director of Studies.  I am originally from Birmingham (the Heart of England!), and moved to London 5 years ago.  I have been working as a teacher since 1999, and started my career in Italy, where I stayed for 7 years, before moving to Slovakia.  When I am not at work I am either baking, playing guitar, eating the cakes I like to bake, cycling or running (oh, and sleeping, I like to do that a lot too!).  After 5 years of working here I have met so many wonderful, interesting students and teachers, and got to find out more about London, and other countries and cultures.  Every day is a learning experience for me!
