Experienced English teacher and customer-care specialist with strong intercultural communication.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced English teacher and customer-care professional with a strong background in exam preparation (Cambridge Movers to Advanced), classroom management, and technical customer support. I've worked in multicultural settings across Portugal and Germany, led teams for international volunteer exchanges, and developed communication and branding materials for outreach campaigns.
I combine hands-on classroom experience with customer service skills — resolving technical issues, managing bookings and refunds, and advising on social-security and subsidy documentation. I am organized, adaptable under pressure, and committed to delivering clear, student- and client-focused solutions.
