My Profile

        I am Mara Tordecilla, an English teacher from the Philippines with a TESOL certificate. I was a teacher in Vietnam from 2013 to 2015. After my contract expired, I decided to go back to the Philippines and devote my time to my family. But after several years, my passion for teaching persisted and I decided to give ESL teaching a try once again. I am hoping that I can be given a chance to teach in Vietnam for the second time because it has been like my second home next to my country the Philippines.

          During my 2 years of teaching ESL in Vietnam, I was lucky to have given the opportunity to teach in the northern and southern part of this lovely country. For the first half of 2013 I was in Binh Duong and Dong Nai, two provinces that are only a few kilometers from Saigon. And I spent a year and a half in Yen bai province before I head back home. My experiences in ESL teaching had made me more adept with the different methodologies required to make non-English speakers be more knowledgeable with the English language.
