What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a teaching role where I can support K-12 and adult learners to improve English communication and speaking, while continuing professional development. I’d love a collaborative environment that values strong language foundations and student growth.

I’m an ESL Teacher with hands-on experience teaching K-12 learners and also supporting adults in communication and speaking skills. I plan lessons, deliver instruction, maintain a positive classroom environment, and evaluate students’ learning results while working closely with supervisors and school administrations.

Alongside teaching, I’ve built strong language and editing skills through Editor Intern roles, where I evaluated manuscripts, followed editorial process guidelines, translated documents between English and Vietnamese, and checked grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency of facts and titles. I’m currently pursuing TESOL certification and professional development to keep improving how I teach—grounded in my interests in child psychology and neuropsychology.
