Introduction:

I am a hard working, punctual and reliable teacher who really enjoys teaching and learning from my students. When I was 19 I moved to Vietnam to teach english. I worked as a part time ESL teacher for approximately 7 months delivering highly interactive 45-minute classes to students between 3 and 10 years old. Once I had gained some experience I got hired as head foreign ESL teacher at Popodoo Larva English Centre in Hanoi, Vietnam. I worked there full time for approximately one year. My classes there were also highly interactive and each class ran for 1 and a half hours. My duties included making lesson plans, delivering my usual classes, as well as weekly demonstration classes to prospective students, coordinating outings to parks and places where the students could practice their english in real world settings with native tourists, and testing and marking students in oral and written exams. I then left teaching to go to university. I am partially through my studies and this year I am doing job shadowing as well as tutoring high school mathematics and teaching English online, part time. Now that my job shadowing load has decreased I am looking to take my online English teaching far more seriously.
