What I'm looking for

I seek roles in language teaching or research that offer professional growth, supportive colleagues, and opportunities to mentor students while pursuing postgraduate study and scholarship funding.

I am an Applied Linguistics graduate (CGPA 3.66) with practical experience in classroom teaching, IELTS instruction, and office management. I hold an IELTS Academic overall band score of 7.0 (C1) and I am passionate about language research and teaching methodologies.

As a primary school teacher, I planned and conducted interactive lessons, assessed student progress, and collaborated with parents and staff to support learning. As an IELTS instructor, I designed and delivered preparation courses, conducted mock tests, and provided targeted feedback to improve student performance.

In my current role as an office manager, I supervise daily office operations, coordinate internal communications, organize schedules, and support business planning. I bring strong administrative, organizational, and communication skills to both educational and office environments.

I am eager to pursue a master’s degree to deepen my research expertise in linguistics and am actively seeking scholarship-supported opportunities that allow me to contribute to inclusive, evidence-based language education.
