Dear Prospective Student,
Energy, passion and
commitment for service are definitely qualities that you
should posses and that you should be willing to invest in when
you come to TIBA.
The education at TIBA is
definitely not easy. Training is hard and intense but in the
end you will be very proud of
yourself. You finally made it, you are now a professional
butler!
How do you make it through
the 8 weeks?
The first two weeks were the
hardest weeks for me, as you have to get used to live with
strangers in one bungalow. You
have to understand and accept the role-playing at school,
which goes much further than you think. Start with your projects
as soon as you can and don't count on the last free weekend to
do them because you will definitely be busy with other
preparations or other work.
As soon as you accept your
role in the school and as soon as you get used to the new
living situation, you can put all your energy in the course
itself. You will grow together with your colleagues as a
team and you won’t feel lonely anymore, as you know that
they experience the same feelings as you do. You will make
new friends and if you are as lucky as I am, you will even
find a friend for a lifetime.
Try to see the chance to grow
in those 8 weeks and never forget that it's all about
attitude. TIBA can help you to become the best butler that
you can possibly be but in the end it is all up to you. Make
the best of it.
Sincerely,
