PROFILE
I am experienced working in the education management industry. I have professional skills in Intercultural Communication, English as a Second Language(ESL), Entrepreneurship, and Communication.
I am a people-oriented person who wants the best for my students. My skills, education, and experience allow me to ascertain the best methodologies and curriculums for my students to maximize their improvement, while also allowing them to grow. I realize that each student is important, with a unique character, personality, goals, and purpose. I look at all these factors when engaging in a course with my students.
I am interested in entrepreneurship and formed my own company in Taiwan in 2014. I am also a published writer and have written books and articles for a local newspaper. I am an avid photographer and conservationist, and I try to spend my free time practicing my hobbies. I love to teach, and I love to be involved in the improvement of the quality of life of people.
