Every day is unique when you teach in kindergarten! I love nurturing a budding love of language and discovery. As I've spent the longest time with 4-year-olds, I have a developed a strong focus on being a positive influence and aiding personal development.I have broad experience in teaching all age groups (Korean 4-7 years) and language levels (1st-4th year learners). I have also helped develop a curriculum for 1st-year language learners, become skilled in one-on-one tutoring, and have been a reading/writing mentor. In our after-school academy program, April, I have gained extensive experience teaching students aged between 8 to 11 years old of varying fluency. This program has also made me very confident in teaching a wide variety of subjects and has made me confident in using technology during lessons, with April having a mixed-media learning approach.

A quirky and vibrant company to match my personality, Daiso was a place where I learned crucial leadership and teamwork skills. As a duty manager, I was able to open and close by myself, conduct banking, delegate tasks to my team, and support my manager. I have comprehensive merchandising skills and working at Daiso has left me with an appreciation of the Japanese working culture and the company's products.

A casual weekend position that taught me invaluable interpersonal communication, crisis management, and time management skills. Working alone, I was entrusted by the owner to open, close, restock, and do banking. With it being a coffee shop directly on a beach, it became more than just a place to grab takeout coffee; it was a community hub and meeting place for locals and tourists alike. I was a vessel of information, a shoulder to lean on, an integral member of the local community – I made a pretty good coffee too!Despite being a casual barista job, it gave me invaluable people skills and the ability to understand human behaviour and how to react to countless social and hospitality skills. Also, our location meant that I often had to work under intense customer pressure for extended periods of time.
