English Teacher @ Joy English
For the past 5 years, I've been educating grade school students in English as a Foreign Language—everything from the basics to preparing them for standardized tests. Communication is a big part of my job, not just lecturing but understanding each student's unique needs. Before that, I have over 5 years of experience in the tech industry. Being able to adapt to different technologies and situations is one of my strong points even under pressure. Things move quickly in today’s world almost too quickly, Even if I am not an expert in a particular subject matter it's no problem for me to find the answers I need to solve any problems.
