  University of British Columbia

  Aug 2022 - Apr 2023

  Undergraduate Student Advisor

  I was on the First-Year Experience team at UBC, helping incoming first year students engage and make connections during their first academic terms at university. In this role I facilitated activities to educate students through both passive and social engagement. I also monitored student progress and performance, offering academic, social, and emotional support. Teamwork was a large facet of the role, through communication with team members to sustain organization of workspace and roles. Further, I served to help students more clearly define and follow academic paths Show less

  ILSC Education Group

  Jun 2024 - Aug 2024

  Off-Site Activity Leader @ ILSC Junior Camp UBC

  On a team of activity leaders, I supervised students during assigned activities and groups during excursions, exploring the city of Vancouver and its multiple tourist destinations. I facilitated new student orientation and ongoing daytime activities that helped international youth both socialize and practice English-language skills. As the position was both on the UBC campus and off-site in more public areas, my position ensured the health & safety, welfare, and discipline of students. With ILSC being an education program, I encouraged active learning and participation for students through emotional support and engagement. I collaborated with my colleagues and brainstormed new activities to improve student experience and overcome issues with communication. Show less
