Hi, I’m Julien Brunoir, an Educational Coach passionate about helping Global Majority Heritage educators and leaders build resilience, grow with confidence, and achieve recognition.
My Journey
In 2008, I left Martinique for London to pursue my dream in education. The transition wasn’t easy; language barriers, cultural adjustments, and academic hurdles tested me. Later, the demands of school leadership led me to burnout and hospitalisation, a turning point that deepened my conviction: well-being in education is not optional; it is essential.
From Challenge to Purpose
Over the past 15 years, I’ve gone from classroom teacher to Head of Department, transforming my faculty into a centre of excellence. Along the way, I mentored students, supported colleagues, and led change that improved both teaching quality and student outcomes.
Now, as an Educational and Skills Coach, I draw on my lived experiences to empower educators and leaders, especially those from Global Majority Heritage backgrounds, to thrive personally and professionally.
Beyond the Classroom
I’m also the proud dad of an 11-year-old “kidpreneur” who created her own self-development journal to help children manage emotions and grow in confidence. Together, we champion student well-being and voice in education.
I also serve as Co-Headteacher of La Marelle, a French school supporting children and families to maintain their language and cultural heritage. This experience has deepened my understanding of bilingual education, cross-cultural identity, and the vital role of community in shaping confident, resilient learners.
My Mission
From overcoming barriers to building resilience, my journey is proof of what’s possible. My mission is to:
Empower educators to thrive, not just survive.
Equip leaders to create cultures of trust, growth, and belonging.
Inspire students to believe in themselves and achieve their potential.
→ If you’re ready to invest in the well-being and success of your staff and students, let’s connect. Together, we can build schools and communities where everyone thrives.
I believe education is more than lessons; it’s about building relationships that unlock confidence, resilience, and purpose. Through coaching, training, and mentoring, I help educators and leaders create environments that foster both staff and student success. Together, we can transform challenges into opportunities for growth and development.
