I have been an English teacher in Japan for the past 16 years. My main focus for the past 5 years has been GBC training and business English.
I worked as an ALT at a Japanese High School for 5 years and an educational resort facility for 4 years. Prior to Japan I was an English teacher in my home country Trinidad and Tobago.
In my free time I enjoy writing film scripts and judging movie shorts for the film festival Hollyshorts Film Festival. In addition to studying Linguistics, I have studied Producing for Film and Television at New York Film Academy and Script-writing at UCLA Extension.
I am a mYngle certified Blended Learning trainer.
