Before embarking on a successful teaching career, Beverley Goodman worked as a member of cabin crew for the UK's largest charter airline. Achieving her personal ambition to become cabin crew, she progressed from a junior role to recruiting, training and managing other cabin crew for the 12 years she was with the company. This wealth of experience provided an excellent foundation for 20 years of teaching vocational travel and tourism courses at the largest Further Education College in Bedfordshire. Although recently retired from teaching, Beverley's driving force continues to revolve around sharing knowledge, providing information, nurturing aspirations and a lifelong passion for the travel industry.
