Cagla How
@caglahow
I am a bilingual English teacher and ISO auditor with 20 years' classroom and remote teaching expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a dynamic, detail-oriented bilingual (Turkish-English) professional with 20 years' experience teaching reception, primary and secondary in both private and state schools. I combine clear, effective communication with strong analytical skills and linguistic abilities, including professional voiceover and interpretation.
I have managed classes of up to 25 students, prepared curriculum-aligned lesson plans, compiled comprehensive student reports, and coordinated Erasmus projects with senior staff. I have delivered professional voiceover projects for high-profile companies, provided face-to-face and remote interpretation, and worked as a personal administrator handling senior-client communications. I have also served as an internal auditor (ISO 9001) and conducted quality audits on school services.
I am actively seeking remote or easily commutable roles where I can apply teaching, auditing and voiceover skills; I am available to start immediately and hold the right to work in the UK with an enhanced DBS.
