@mslara
Online English Lesson Content Developer at Novakid, creating age-appropriate lessons and co-authoring the Look 1–4 exam suite.
What I'm looking for
I co-authored a complete assessment suite for National Geographic Learning's Look 1–4 series, including exams that assess listening, speaking, reading, and writing. I also helped standardize answer keys and grading rubrics.
At PRIVATE ENGLISH CENTERS, I developed interactive lesson plans and materials for young learners, reviewed curricula, and trained and mentored teaching staff. At MAPLE BEAR VCN INTERNATIONAL KINDERGARTEN (NHA TRANG), I taught English immersion classes and mentored teachers.
I co-authored the ESL curriculum for VCN World Kindergarten, contributing age-appropriate lessons, activities, and learning outcomes. I’m seeking to turn learning objectives into fun, intuitive online lessons that children enjoy and learn from.
