Tune in to learn more about Aleksandra and her tips to help students study for an exam that is not in their native tongue! Here's a little bit about Aleksandra:

"After 20 years of work in health/wellness and as a yoga teacher I decided to go back to school and in May 2022 I graduated from KVCC and became a PTA. I passed the board exam in July and I currently practice in an outpatient clinic in Maine and hold a part time per diem job with neurological diagnoses in homes. I'm also a certified 500 h yoga teacher and Pilates instructor and I used to own a family based yoga studio for 8 years in Portland, ME. . My previous work includes an exercise specialist position for retirement community and wellness coordinator at university and wellness coach for a medical practice, among some other positions. .I held a Bachelor degree in health science from USM. My passion is neurological PT and manual therapy and I gravitate towards patients with severe limitations and chronic pain. I'm a single mom of 2 children and a dog and cat owner and lover. In my free time I tend to remain active and spend time in nature and love traveling, art and culture. I'm originally from Poland and I moved to America at age 24." - Aleksandra Townsend, PTA
