Patora has led the engagement team from OPDC to Park Royal campus since 2022. The objective of this relationship with West London College was to engage with construction learners, and help create pathways for them to enter employment in the industry.Many of our learners have little or no connections or have the know-how to enter the industry from study. In order to create these links and opportunities, many talks, discussions, and debates had to take place. These debates often become heated, where disaffected learners voice their frustration at the difficulties in entering employment.
Patora handles these situations perfectly, offering the right mix of assertiveness and empathy. She eventually won the learners around and they now see her as a trusted and valuable ally. Patora’s capacity to gauge a situation and control the conversation in order to get her point across in an effective manner was exceptional. Being from education, I am aware of the skills needed to accomplish this.
Patora diligently followed up every meeting with substance, and maintained communication in a conscious and purposeful way. She exuded empathy towards the learners, and provided opportunities for them while offering support. Patora is a person I’d highly recommend for a position of support, whether in education or within the community. I confirm the above to be true.
