I am patient, empathetic, and friendly . I always have a positive mindset and smiling. I believe these qualities help me build strong relationships with students and create a positive, encouraging learning environment. I’m also culturally sensitive and open-minded, which allows me to connect with learners from diverse backgrounds. I have lived in Vietnam for the past 9 months. During this time it allowed me to fully immerse myself in the culture, build meaningful connections with the community, and adapt my teaching style to fit the local context and classroom environment. Not only have I lived in Vietnam but I have travelled around south east Asia which has only furthered my confidence, adaptability and time management.

I have experience teaching English to students age 2-10-year-old students in Vietnam, where I created interactive and age-appropriate lesson plans that supported language development and student engagement. This hands-on classroom experience has given me a strong understanding of how to adapt teaching methods to suit different learning needs and different curriculums. I like to use interactive games, big gestures, stickers, use my body language- just generally making my lesson engaging. I had two teddies who I would throw to a children when they wanted to answer. I did a few big events where I had to host games for 300 children.

I possess strong communication and classroom management skills, as well as the ability to design creative, student-centered lessons. My background in customer service has further enhanced my problem-solving abilities and professionalism, both of which support effective teaching and collaboration with colleagues and parents.
