What I'm looking for
I am a bilingual professional in Modern Languages with proven experience as an English teacher and executive assistant, skilled at designing dynamic, personalized learning activities and integrating technology to boost student performance. I combine strong organizational support—agenda management, correspondence, and report preparation—with emotional intelligence, effective communication, and the ability to perform under pressure.
I have taught across age groups and modalities (virtual and in-person), performing level placement, curriculum-based instruction, and project-guided learning that fosters creativity and critical thinking. I am adaptable to diverse educational and administrative environments and committed to delivering measurable outcomes and collaborative team coordination.
