Kelly

Hello, I’m teacher Raquel but you may call me Kelly. I took up Bachelor’s Degree in Public Administration at Universidad de Manila. And I would like to share a part of our family's story in my mother side. At the end of world war 2 my great grandmother was married to a Spanish man and they have a son (father of my mother). My great grandmother doesn't want to go to Spain so she ran away and her husband was looking for them relentlessly but he never found them because my great grandmother changed her last name from Rodriguez to Acman (a Filipino surname). He went to Spain in despair and eventually died in an airplane. We never met our relatives in Spain. ;( I live and grew up here in the Philippines. I worked as a Subscription Coordinator in the number one leading magazine publication in the Philippines before I decided to work full-time as an Online English teacher. I’ve been an English teacher for almost 11 years now and in addition to improving myself as a teacher, I took 120-hour TEFL course where I learned how to helped students complete homework assignments and broaden their understanding by connecting to the world outside their community. I created lessons that engaged all learners by applying a variety of teaching methods and utilizing SMARTboard technology. I formed cooperative learning groups, organized individualized projects and implemented learning style research in every lesson and to evaluate the students individually and comprehensively. In both my student teaching and tutoring experiences, I met with parents to keep them apprised of their child’s accomplishments and areas needing extra attention. I am passionate about teaching children and forge relationships with them that help build a sense of confidence and enable them to grow as learners. I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my skills and experience can meet the needs of my students. By the way, if in case you booked a lesson and something come out unexpected that you missed our class, please let me know so we can decide to reschedule it. Otherwise if you fail to do so, the class is still paid. Thank you for your understanding.
