Experience
WORK EXPERIENCE I have conducted training for several companies—journalism courses for students, business writing classes for government employees, and financial management seminars for people looking for financial freedom. Throughout this experience, I have worked alongside teachers, engineers, lawyers, doctors, businessmen, politicians, and foreign counterparts from the U.S.A., Australia, Canada, France, Japan, China, and ASEAN countries. Aside from that, I have been teaching ESL and EFL students as well as training English tutors since 2003. Having dealt with learners from different backgrounds—Filipinos, Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, Swiss, Turkish, Russian, and Iranians, from the “no proficiency” to the “native or bilingual” proficiency level student—I believe it has helped equip me in becoming a teacher. A high-flyer, I always go after what I want. Hence, I look forward to helping other people do the same.
