About

I am a passionate and results-driven educator with extensive experience in English teaching, curriculum design, student mentoring, and academic support. Over the years, I have built a reputation for creating engaging, learner-centered lessons that inspire curiosity and critical thinking. My background also includes academic advising, team coordination, and leadership, where I’ve helped ensure smooth communication, effective workflow, and goal achievement within educational and professional teams. Public speaking is one of my strengths, and I have successfully coached students in oration, declamation, and debate, helping them develop confidence and clarity in communication—skills I also apply in professional writing and digital collaboration.

In addition to my teaching expertise, I have solid experience in academic and creative writing, editing, and content creation. I take pride in producing clear, well-structured, and engaging materials tailored to specific audiences. My background as a chat moderator and virtual assistant has also strengthened my skills in multitasking, maintaining a professional tone, and providing efficient client or customer support in fast-paced online environments. These roles have refined my adaptability, attention to detail, and communication—qualities essential for remote work.

I am highly proficient in digital and technical tools, including Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Google Workspace, Canva, Kahoot, Blooket, Quizlet, and ChatGPT. I enjoy integrating technology and creativity to improve workflow, enhance communication, and deliver high-quality results. My ability to manage projects independently while maintaining strong collaboration with remote teams makes me confident in handling diverse online roles that require organization, initiative, and reliability.

My commitment to learning extends to languages and cross-cultural communication. I passed the JLPT N5 Japanese-Language Proficiency Test and completed both N4 and N5 Japanese Intermediate Courses in 2018, reflecting my interest in connecting across cultures. I am fluent in English, a native speaker of Filipino, and conversational in Japanese (JLPT N4 level).

Combining my teaching, writing, editing, and technical skills, I bring a unique blend of creativity, professionalism, and cultural awareness to every role I take on. I aim to make a meaningful contribution to a globally minded organization while continuing to grow as an adaptable, innovative, and dependable remote professional.
