I am an experienced and dedicated English teacher with a background that sets me up perfectly for success in any educational environment. With over two and a half years as a remote healthcare interpreter for a US-based company, I’ve developed strong skills in clear and accurate communication, especially in high-stakes medical settings. This role has given me a deep understanding of nuanced language use and the importance of empathy and precision in communication—skills that are invaluable in the classroom. Additionally, my extensive teaching experience at a language institute, where I instructed students across proficiency levels from A1 to C1, has equipped me with the ability to develop and implement engaging, tailored lesson plans that address diverse learning needs.

Furthermore, as a 10th grade English teacher at a Jesuit Ignatian high school, I integrated Ignatian pedagogical principles to promote critical thinking, reflection, and holistic education. To further enhance my teaching capabilities, I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Translation and Interpretation and taking a C2 English class. These studies will soon allow me to update my certification to a higher level, providing me with cutting-edge techniques and deeper insights into language intricacies. This ongoing education will help me deliver even more effective and dynamic lessons, ensuring my students receive the highest quality of instruction.

My background in healthcare interpretation complements my teaching by enhancing my ability to convey complex concepts clearly and compassionately, ensuring that all students, regardless of their background, can achieve their full potential. This combination of skills underscores my commitment to fostering effective communication and comprehensive learning in my students, preparing them not just for exams, but for real-world challenges.
