Summary
I completed my education in the U.S. from high school through college. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Educational Studies from Gettysburg College and a Master’s in Curriculum & Instruction from the University of San Diego.
I've been working as an elementary Teaching Assistant at two of the top international schools in Hanoi (Concordia International School and UNIS). Currently, I'm preparing to pursue my U.S. DC teaching license through Moreland University, starting this May and expecting to complete it by January or February next year. I'm also planning to get my TEFL certification this June, once the 2024–2025 school year wraps up.
