Natasha PatelAccommodation and Schools Officer

Natasha’s role at NILE is to work with the Accommodation Manager in recruiting new hosts and placing students in suitable accommodation. As part of her job, she ensures that our students have a smooth and comfortable stay with their homestay hosts, and she works very closely with our network of hosts to support them and help them get the most out of their visits. She also helps arrange and coordinate residential accommodation for those students who prefer a more independent experience.

The other part of her role is to build and maintain relationships with local primary and secondary schools and arrange and monitor school visits and placements for our participants and groups.

As part of the Student Services team she supports students during their time in Norwich, as well as NILE visiting and permanent staff when needed.

Prior to joining NILE in 2022, Natasha spent 5 years at another language school as an Accommodation Officer and Office Manager. This has given her a good base and knowledge of the role she is doing now.
