I am a Filipino and moved here in Canada who is an aspiring online language tutor with experience teaching at both the elementary and secondary levels, as well as working as an ESL teacher. I provide structured, student-centered lessons designed to build confidence, accuracy, and effective communication skills. My goal is to support learners in achieving steady progress in a supportive and engaging learning environment.
I hold a Bachelor of Education major in Filipino from Philippine Normal University NCTE and going to take an Early Childhood Education (ECE) course to further develop my knowledge in child development and effective teaching practices at Sheridan College.
I have teaching experience with both elementary and secondary students in a private school setting, as well as experience as an ESL teacher for Korean learners of various age groups, supporting students with academic English and exam preparation such as TOEFL and IELTS. In addition, I have worked as a child caregiver and private tutor, which has strengthened my ability to adapt to diverse learning needs and age groups.
My teaching approach is conversational and interactive, focusing on engaging activities that enhance communication while building a strong foundation in language basics. I strive to make lessons realistic and practical, providing examples and situations that students can use in their daily lives, so learning becomes meaningful and immediately applicable.
