TESOL-certified ESL teacher with strong customer service and instructional experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a TESOL-certified ESL teacher with extensive experience delivering online and in-person lessons for learners of all ages, focused on developing reading, writing and conversational skills.
Throughout my career I have combined teaching with customer-facing roles—working in call centres, reception, administration and bookkeeping—which honed my communication, relationship-building and organizational abilities.
I design tailored progress reports, adapt lessons to individual needs, and emphasize active reading and structured writing development; I have successfully taught children and teenagers across multiple cultural contexts.
I bring a friendly, adaptable approach, a detail-oriented work ethic, and a passion for supporting learner development and positive customer experiences.
