I am a Canadian who grew up in the US. I moved back to Canada for college. My career background is in Finance. I worked for several banks in Canada and I felt that I needed a change. So I decided to teach and get away from the 9-5 drone lifestyle and travel. I have travelled all over Asia and I loved it. So I thought to myself why not travel and teach? So far I have only taught in China, however I plan on teaching in other parts of Asia to get an idea of the lifestyle in Asia.

No, however I am currently working on my Masters.

Offline teaching experience: 3

I have taught in-person for about 3 years in China. Most of my students have been retired adults, professional adults and teenagers. My professional adult students work for Microsoft China and Huawei. I have taught basic, intermediate and business English. I created my own lesson plans based on the students needs as well as following the curriculum. I tend to focus on lessons that the students can apply in their everyday practical lives. I am also currently doing my Masters of Education in Applied Teaching online. Currently we are researching autonomy in education which is relative for students to apply their knowledge based on their situational daily needs.
