In this role, I supported the development of the ISB ELC project providing on-site English language teaching for Hengyi Industries Ltd. I utilised my vast experience in education and course development to collaborate on the creation of the course curriculum, lesson plans, and learning materials to teach English to students ranging between beginner and pre-intermediate levels.*NB The ISB ELC contract with Hengyi Industries to deliver TEFL/ESL services was terminated by the client company as at 30 June and ISB terminated my contract early as at the same date. I can provide an ISB letter of termination evidencing these facts. Unfortunately, I cannot provide a reference or an up to date statement of service because ISB policy is to provide these directly to an ex-ISB employee’s prospective future employers upon request.This practice is apparently now the norm but I find the circumventing, leaving of employees concerned out of the loop, of great concern. It is a denial of what I believe to be a fundamental right with regard to work and finding it.That said, some key achievements from this role include:• Held joint responsibility for online training of postgraduate TEFL instructors during COVID-19 pandemic lockdown periods in 2019.• Led design and implementation of TEFL courses to support student-workers in achieving IELTS qualifications.• Co-planned and designed TEFL course training and reporting formats.• Held Principal Liaison role to lead communications with client company's HR and Health Safety & Environment personnel regarding ISB ELC onsite delivery of English Language.• Taught 90 adult student-workers over six 12-week cycles, achieving average score of 75.5% in collated progress tests for each cycle throughout the two-year period.• April through May 2021 took over the teaching of Pre-Intermediate Business English course for a colleague on medical leave
