Multilingual educator and editor blending teaching, content, and customer expertise.
AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated educator and editor with experience teaching English internationally and providing freelance editing services for diverse clients. My background combines classroom instruction, curriculum and lesson planning, and a strong editorial eye for clarity and style.
As an English teacher at EF in Shanghai, I designed interactive lessons and immersive activities that supported language acquisition and cultural inclusion for native Chinese students. I also organised team-building events and tailored instruction to developmental needs.
In freelance editing I edited varied content for international clients, built strong professional relationships, and consistently delivered work on schedule across time zones. I published a poetry book in 2023, demonstrating my commitment to writing and creative expression.
Earlier roles in banking and customer service strengthened my training, technical, and client-facing skills, including creating training materials, navigating CRM and enterprise software, and communicating effectively in high-pressure environments.
