ESL Lecturer (English as a Second Language) Passionate and flexible creative and learned professional with over 20 years of experience in achieving enlightened educational goals and progress in a bilingual environment with an audience from diverse backgrounds. • Designed exams to test fluency in reading, writing, speaking and comprehension of the English language. • Developed activities and integrated technology to diversify instruction. • Documented student attendance and progress against goals. I believe it is my role as teacher to ensure all students achieve within their educational setting. To succeed, it is essential that realistic goals be set to constantly reflect curriculum delivery and make French relevant to everyday life. Part of my professional challenge is to ensure that my specialist subjects remain high profile within the school setting. I have actively promoted Linguistics at open days and other school events to keep my department profile in the public eye. I strive to build strong relationships and rapport with my students from the outset.I have been enriched personally and learnt much from their diverse backgrounds, cultures and needs. I have high expectations of all my classes and realise the benefits of thorough planning and organisational skills to accommodate the differing rates of student progression. I regularly reflect on my own practice and enjoy collaborating professionally with colleagues to expand my skills and interests. I love teaching and am driven by a desire to make a difference.
