Drawing from a wealth of immersive experiences, my expertise lies predominantly in ESL teaching, forged over a career spanning diverse global settings. With a BA degree in Political Science as my foundation, I transitioned into the role of an English speechwriter, personal assistant, and translator for the esteemed Thai Minister of Finance. My journey into ESL instruction began with a certified TEFL accreditation, marking the inception of over 16 enriching years dedicated to empowering students across Asia and online. As an Academic Director overseeing 12 branches of a reputable Thai language school, I architected a comprehensive English Language Learning curriculum tailored specifically for students aged 5-18. My pedagogical journey encompasses serving as an English Literature Professor at Thailand's largest university, where I meticulously crafted immersive lessons, guided students through written essay evaluations, and mentored them for international school scholarships and student visa interviews. Beyond borders, my dedication to ESL education extended to Nepal, where I facilitated collaborations between NGOs and the Nepalese government, contributing to impactful humanitarian projects. Additionally, my recent achievement in obtaining Google's Data Analytics certification further enriches my skill set. With an unwavering passion for ESL teaching, honed through years of versatile experiences and comprehensive expertise, I stand prepared to offer impactful educational guidance and contribute significantly to fostering students' language proficiency and growth.
