I am Antonio, known by many as Mr C. I am the Centre Exams Manager at Knightsbridge. During the years I have become responsible for dealing with enrolments, ensuring you and your students get your certificates and am part of the customer support service.
I am also the person responsible for ensuring that the exam sessions run as smoothly as possible and that candidates have a stress free experience if possible. You will often see me at sessions as the venue manager helping the team on the exam days.
On a personal level I enjoy my quiet time in a calm space. I enjoy good and late Sunday lunches with the family. On my days off I like reading a good book and listening to music.
