Anna Golebiewska

After graduating in English studies from the University in Bydgoszcz I started to work as a teacher of English in Poland. Few years later me and my husband decided to come to England. At the moment I work as a Bilingual Consultant at Riverside Recruitment. However, I have always loved music and as a student I used to sing with a local band with whom I gave a few concerts. When I started my job as a teacher I had to stopped working with them and since then I've been missing singing very much."
