What I'm looking for

I am seeking a remote position that allows me to utilize my teaching and financial skills while contributing to a collaborative team environment.

I am a dedicated educator with over a year and a half of experience teaching English in Vietnam. My journey began with a passion for education and a commitment to fostering a positive learning environment for my students. I have successfully taught English, Maths, and Science to grade 3 and grade 4 learners, creating inclusive lessons that cater to diverse learning needs.

Before my teaching career, I worked as a Bookkeeper and Debtor’s Clerk at WESSA, where I honed my financial management skills. My experience includes reconciling entries, maintaining accurate financial records, and ensuring compliance with budgetary constraints. I thrive in team-based environments but am equally comfortable working independently, always ready to face challenges head-on.
