Experience

  World Trade Center Wisconsin

  Jun 2008 - Jul 2009

  This job was one of my first peeks inside international corporate culture. I really became adept at utilizing Microsoft Office products, particularly Word and Excel.

I also took the initiative in standardizing our editorial process and research templates.

  Gyeonggi Provincial Government

  Jan 2010 - Jan 2012

  Curriculum Editor and Teacher

  Working at English Village was a simply indescribable experience that provided me with a great opportunity to branch out from “just teaching” to develop my own lessons and eventually become editor of our self-published textbooks. While editing these textbooks, I had to work closely across different departments to create lessons that were fun, engaging, and fit into the larger paradigm of our immersion-based teaching style. Additionally, I became a PowerPoint maestro, needing to keep up with my easily-distracted teenage students. Show less

  Elly & Stoffl GmbH

  Jun 2013 - Apr 2015

  English Teacher

  Teaching English is tough business, and doubly so to kindergartners in a second (or third!) language. That said, it was highly fulfilling work to watch the children learn and grow on a daily basis, supported by a great, international team. I successfully integrated the "co-construction" teaching philosophy into my age-appropriate lesson plans. It was difficult to leave, but I knew I wanted to change tracks and take an education in international and environmental law.
