Our team

The perfect way to make a difference

Angela Taylor

Founder and owner


I worked in various sectors before finding my way to international education. I spent over two decades in the TV, public relations, and music industries and for more than 18 of those years, I was in television programme acquisitions. This meant working for renowned channels such as Discovery, Living, Travel Channel and Teachers TV. I loved what I was doing, especially helping to choose educational content for Teachers TV but I felt the overwhelming desire to make a bigger difference in people’s lives. My role involved sourcing and evaluating the documentary content for both Travel and Teachers TV channels. This knowledge and experience led me to move into international education, student counselling, and the delivery of training solutions for overseas business clients.

Now more than a decade later, I’m proud to say that we work with over 95 language schools and more than 85 universities here in the UK. We also offer study abroad options at many more education and training institutions overseas, in Ireland, Canada, Spain, Australia, the US and other countries.

I’m equally proud of our track record of helping hundreds of delighted students and clients around the world to fulfil their ambitions and find the education or training option that best suits their skills and needs.

Now every heartfelt testimonial from a student or client gives me immense personal satisfaction. It makes all the hard work of the team at Atava immensely worthwhile. Knowing that we are making changes in the lives of all our clients is hugely gratifying.

Long may it continue!
