My goal is to earn a position as a teacher in a strong and growing school where I can contribute to the academic success of my students. I have a solid background in creating lesson plans and assessing student progress, ensuring that each child meets the school's standards. I also have experience in private tutoring, which has allowed me to support students beyond the classroom setting. In my previous role at Shane English School in Taiwan, I was responsible for teaching various subjects, including speaking, listening, writing, grammar, math, phonics, and vocabulary. I took pride in developing comprehensive lesson plans and conducting assessments to track student progress. My commitment to following school policies and maintaining a positive learning environment was paramount in my teaching approach. Before my teaching career, I owned and managed a pub and grill, where I honed my customer service and management skills. This experience taught me the importance of effective communication and teamwork, as I trained new employees and ensured customer satisfaction. Additionally, I have a background in executive recruiting, where I managed the recruitment process for various industries. This role required strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build relationships with clients and candidates alike. I successfully placed mid to senior-level executives, demonstrating my ability to match talent with organizational needs. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Business Management from California State University Fullerton, which has provided me with a solid foundation in management principles. I am fluent in both Chinese and English, allowing me to connect with a diverse range of students and colleagues. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills and experiences to a new teaching position. ## Skills 10 capabilities[Business Development](https://jobicy.com/talent/business-development.md)[Communication Skills](https://jobicy.com/talent/communication-skills.md)[Curriculum Development](https://jobicy.com/talent/curriculum-development.md)[Customer Service](https://jobicy.com/talent/customer-service.md)[Organizational Skills](https://jobicy.com/talent/organizational-skills.md)[Problem Solving](https://jobicy.com/talent/problem-solving.md)[Relationship Building](https://jobicy.com/talent/relationship-building.md)[Strategic Planning](https://jobicy.com/talent/strategic-planning.md)[Teamwork](https://jobicy.com/talent/teamwork.md)[Time Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/time-management.md) ## Experience Career history ### English Teacher · Shane English School 09/2013 – 03/2018Taught speaking, listening, writing, grammar, math, phonics, and vocabulary to Grade 1 - Grade 6 students.
