What I'm looking for

I am seeking a part-time work-from-home position that values strong interpersonal skills and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated professional with extensive experience in private tutoring and marketing, having worked in both the US and Asia. My journey began as a Marketing Assistant in Hong Kong, where I collaborated with sales teams to create impactful sales collateral and conducted market research to identify new opportunities. This role honed my skills in communication and problem-solving, which I have carried into my subsequent positions.

As a self-employed tutor for over 15 years, I have successfully taught more than 100 students, focusing on ESL for kindergarten through middle school. I pride myself on creating customized teaching materials that cater to each student's unique capabilities and goals. My commitment to fostering a friendly learning environment has led to significant improvements in my students' English language test scores.

Currently, I serve as the Vice President of the PTA at Marlboro Memorial Middle School, where I lead fundraising initiatives and coordinate events that engage the community. My ability to manage multiple tasks effectively while maintaining strong interpersonal relationships has been key to my success in this role.
