What I'm looking for

I seek roles using my multilingual translation and ESOL curriculum expertise to improve learner outcomes in inclusive, data-driven educational settings.

I am a native French speaker and multilingual education specialist with extensive experience in language instruction, curriculum design, and translation across educational and professional settings. I have designed ESOL curricula, delivered targeted tutoring, and provided accurate legal, financial, and technical translations for schools, banks, and agencies.

My achievements include creating a tri-lingual banking mini-dictionary, implementing ESOL programs that improved language acquisition, and managing translation projects with strong cultural fidelity. I prioritize data-driven decision-making, inclusive learning environments, and clear cross-cultural communication.
