Lily: South Africa: Aug 15, 2018

I’m post-graduate educated from the leading university in Africa, the University of Cape Town, and an EFL qualified teacher. I have experience with private tutoring for a child with learning difficulties; a second language English speaking child in Mumbai; and have volunteered as an English tutor through an NGO at university, where I taught English to small groups of five to ten students from impoverished areas in Cape Town. Similarly, I have also worked as a committee member of an organisation that took children on bi-monthly hikes or camps, where I helped plan and execute environmentally based lessons and form meaningful relationships with children who were otherwise unlikely to have positive role models. I thus have experience teaching, mentoring and caring for children with different needs and backgrounds.
I love to learn, and have a natural inclination toward sharing my knowledge and teaching. As a result of my hard working and committed nature, I always strive to give my best to everything that I do. Because I have lived and worked in international settings, I’m at ease submersing myself in cultures very different to my own and always respectful there of. My work experience has given me good communication, editing, writing, planning and people skills. Moreover, I'm a naturally jovial, approachable and positive person and am constantly striving to improve.
