What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to support and inspire students while fostering growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated TEFL teacher with a strong commitment to fostering a supportive learning environment. Currently teaching online, I develop bespoke lesson plans tailored to individual student needs, ensuring that each learner receives the attention and resources necessary to thrive. My experience includes delivering engaging English lessons to non-native speakers, which has significantly improved their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills.

In my previous role as a Real Estate Consultant, I meticulously assessed client needs to recommend properties that matched their criteria and budget. My ability to monitor market trends and advise clients on timely acquisitions has been instrumental in my success. I pride myself on my empathy and resourcefulness, which allow me to build meaningful relationships with clients from diverse backgrounds.

With a background in customer service as a receptionist, I have honed my organizational skills and my ability to create a welcoming atmosphere for clients. My goal is to make a positive impact in the lives of others, whether through teaching, supporting, or simply being a compassionate presence. I am eager to bring my unique combination of skills and experiences to my next career opportunity.
