The London School of English, UK. This summer Chris Newman celebrated the 40th anniversary of his arrival at the school. Starting as a trainer, he then worked his way through sales and market management before recently settling into his current role as Alumni Development Manager. Since his arrival in 1978, he has taughtassistedand maintained relationships with hundreds of clients, including some whose repeated study visits span decades. He attributes his loyalty to the London School Group to the good support provided to staff, the excellent facilities and the fascinating clients. Chris’ anniversary was marked by a surprise party and barbecue held at the school’s Holland Park campus.
