English teacher: October 2016 

  Taught private lessons for a group of four nursing students in Beijing, China. I was assigned to students who had no previous knowledge of the English language, because of my ability to speak Mandarin Chinese. I used different teaching methods in every class session, from understanding basic English vocabulary to helping students communicate effectively in the English language.

LANGUAGE SKILLS 

Native Language: English

Third Language: Mandarin Chinese (Beginner- Intermediate)       

Since childhood, I spoke Spanish at home with family and friends and continue to improve while I attended weekly Spanish educational meetings. I can read and write in Spanish. In middle school I took a Spanish course for one year. Because of my expertise, I was offered to take the America Council of Foreign Language Proficiency test (AAPPL) and scored an A. This allowed me to earn a credit for high school and was not required to take a language course.  

In 2009 I took a 6-month Mandarin Chinese intense course. In 2012 I took Chinese Level 1 and 2 to brush up on my Chinese, taught by Jiuping Wang. I continued to take Chinese courses in 2013, 2014 during my high school years to prepare me for volunteer work, in the local Chinese community. In September 2016, I traveled to Beijing China for one month to immerse myself into the Chinese mandarin language and culture. Then in February 2017 I lived in Kunming China for 4 months to attended a Keats Chinese language School.
