CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented student with a strong background in academic research, tutoring, and freelance writing, committed to continuous learning and professional growth.
As a tutor and English instructor, I helped students improve reading comprehension, writing, grammar, and vocabulary while contributing to educational equity for learners who lacked access to private tutoring.
In mentorship and research roles, I developed leadership, communication, time management, and critical thinking skills by facilitating welcoming environments for new students and participating in academic and market research studies with high standards.
