Introduction:

One of the things that inspire me most in life is a creative environment. An environment where people feel free to express their individual creativity through different mediums, personalities, and tools.

This is what lead me to travel and desire to teach English throughout Asia. Teaching English gives me the opportunity to think creatively and to create an environment for students that turns English into more than just a subject but a fun and engaging learning experience.

I enjoy using a variety of activities, methods of learning, tools, and games to nurture students' independent thinking and confidence in using English to express themselves. I am looking for a life-changing experience in a school where I can teach elementary or even high school students oral or grammatical English as well as assess and monitor their growth in the language.
