About Me
First of all, I must say that I'd like to think that specialization is possible in multiple but similar and related areas of personal interest and expertise. That is why during the entire period of my Bachelor and Master studies at the Faculty of Law, I broadened my knowledge by being proactive - volunteering and engaging in various projects, seminars, courses, and conferences that fall in the scope of my interest, potential, and possibilities. Through those opportunities, I was able to publish three works in English, all in the area of Human Rights, all in the scope of just one year. But, my background doesn't end with Law-related knowledge and engagement only. I also priorly taught English, both on-line about two years, and also in-class (live, face to face) in Vietnam - in both kindergartens and private schools. Following the footsteps of my father and grandmother, who were well-known teachers, and aspiring to become a University professor one day, I combined teaching English with teaching Law, Human Rights, Environmental issues and awareness and Humanities and social sciences on-line, as those are also the areas my expertise lays in. Therefore, regarding professional development, I believe in versatility and individually specified and tailored expertise, which is also reflected in the multidisciplinary and multimedia approach in my method of teaching English.
I strongly believe that today's fast, globalized consumer society needs to take a step back and start fixing its own flaws. In other words, in order to be able to help others, one must first help himself. To achieve that, everyone must obtain the number 1 asset in the 21st century - relevant information. As information keeps multiplying day by day through hastily changing trends on internet, the bare minimum everyone should have is the knowledge of the basics about how to "survive and thrive" through numerous critical issues such as Globalization, Internet era, Consumerism, Unsustainability, Climate change, Global Warming, Discrimination, Hate speech and similar. Since everyone is slowly turning towards extra-curriculum activities and alternatives to formal education, I think that on-line tutoring gives great opportunities to broaden knowledge on the critical topics in Social Sciences/Humanities, and what better way to learn a language than through topics that are actually quite relevant and interesting in the modern world.
To conclude, I think you can gather yourself that I am in fact, a humanitarian and an activist, additionally to my profession, that advising, sharing, and giving, rather than taking, fulfills me and makes me who I am. So, I am here to help, advise, give...The taking and sharing further part rests on you now and is just one click away - book me, and we can start being a part of the change. I can't wait...Can you? :)Education
