What I'm looking for

I seek learner-focused teaching roles in language institutes or private academies, where I can deliver communicative, individualized instruction and support measurable student progress in a collaborative, culturally respectful environment.

I am an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) tutor with a background in psychology and practical experience supporting learners from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. I design student-centered, communicative lessons that build confidence, listening, and conversational skills for individuals and small groups across ages and proficiency levels.

I have provided personalized remote and in-person instruction since 2021, held a peer tutoring role in psychology and English, and work as a Direct Support Professional emphasizing patience, adaptability, and individualized attention. I hold a 120-hour TEFL certification and am open to teaching opportunities in language institutes and private academies in Chile.
