Curriculum Vitae
I’m a hard-working, dedicated teacher with a great passion for teaching young learners. My teaching philosophy is to ensure my students are having fun while learning in a happy, safe and comfortable environment. I always strive to make learning exciting, inspiring, challenging and most of all captivating. I moved to China almost 3 years ago on a TEFL certificate, and have since obtained IB certification, and am currently pursuing my Masters in Early Years Education. I am reliable, not afraid of a challenge, always hold myself to a high standard, and most of all, I am caring in nature and passionate about teaching.

Dietary care and counselling to adult and paediatric patients in hospital and clinic settings. These positions forced me to work in dynamic and challenging situations on a daily basis; teaching me valuable life skills and sharpening my professional skills.
