Alícia Groth Becker

"Hi, I’m Alícia! I’m originally from Brazil and I have a background in education and marketing. I’ve been teaching since I was 16, which helped me develop strong communication skills and a genuine passion for helping people.

As an international student in Ireland myself, I know how exciting and challenging moving to a new country can be. I’m here to support you every step of the way, from settling in to feeling confident and at home in Cork.

I love connecting with students from different cultures and making their experience in Ireland positive, welcoming, and unforgettable."

Jakub Kryszczak

“My name is Jakub Kryszczak and I'm the Digital Marketer for Cork Study Connect since late 2025. 

I specialise in creating engaging content campaigns that connect international students with opportunities in Ireland. With a passion for social media strategy and content creation, I strive to bring the company’s mission to life online.

As a Polish - born student currently living and studying in Ireland, I joined Cork Study Connect because I want to spread as much information as possible regarding how other people like me can create new opportunities for themselves by studying english in a new environment. 

To anyone who wants to expand their horizons, I've never seen better support for international students than Lisa and Cork Study Connect”.
