Warmest greetings!
My name is Nadiia Stukalova, a 32-year-old woman honored to participate in this prestigious pageant. I’m a loving wife and mother of three, a Cambridge-certified educator with two Master’s degrees, a businesswoman, and an influencer.
As a wife and mother, I live by the values of honesty, resilience, and unconditional love. I cherish time with my family and actively support my husband in his business and investment projects. My home is my foundation and from there I build outward into the world.
As a teacher and entrepreneur, I empower immigrants to thrive in Canada by giving them the most powerful tool: the English language. With over 15 years of experience, my English school and I have taught more than 4,000 students. I am truly honored to witness their transformation from hesitant first words to confident speeches, from fear to freedom. Students say I explain the hardest things in simple words and become the person they can trust and open up to.
Being an immigrant myself for over 9 years, I know the weight of starting over. That’s why I began sharing my journey on Instagram. Today, nearly 34,000 people follow my story, gaining daily motivation and hope as I speak openly and honestly so that others feel less alone.
A few months ago, I was honored to be invited to teach in local schools and help to co-found our Ukrainian community in Canada. I serve the community, educate children, and am about to open a language school, a legacy I’m deeply proud of.
My journey is one of courage, commitment, and constant growth; from newcomer to community builder, educator to leader.
Believe in yourself and others. Serve with love.
And remember: the sky is not the limit, it’s just the beginning.
Thank you, TCP, for this incredible opportunity.
