Teacher Emma H's Page

Hello my name is Emma and I am from Melbourne Australia. I have a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Health Science from La Trobe University in Melbourne Australia. My majors included both history and public health which I think demonstrates that I have very wide and diverse interests and would love talking and learning with you in English about a range of interesting topics in.

I have spend the last two years living and teaching English abroad. I am TEFL certified and am currently living and working in Colombia teaching English in a public school in conjunction with the Colombian Ministry of Education. I have been in Colombia for nearly a year now and throughly enjoy teaching and the opportunity of living, working and conversing with new people.

Before coming to Colombia I completed a community development internship in Mexico where I had the pleasure of teaching English to young learners, setting up a new literacy development program and working with kids with disability.

Throughout my travel I have had the exciting opportunity of learning Spanish. This has helped my greatly improve my English teaching ability as it has helped me to understand both the triumphs and struggles of learning a new language and improve my teaching techniques to help students overcome them.

I would love the opportunity to meet and talk with you soon! If you have any questions I would love to hear them!
