teaching English, reading, travelling
1. I enjoy teaching English as I hold a Bachelor of Education in English Language Teaching. I also create free English learning educational content on my social media for all ages, from children to adults, learning vocabulary for daily conversation and relevant everyday topics. By teaching English, many people will enjoy and become familiar with the language, especially women and mothers who can teach their children or use it for themselves.
2. I love reading about everything!. Learning trendy terms keeps me updated so I can be the best confidant and listening ear for my Gen Alpha kids.
3. During my leisure time, I enjoy traveling with friends, colleagues, or even family. By travelling helps me stay healthy, balanced, and focused.
