Liz Paws
Profession: Office administration and bookkeeping. Running businesses and assisting in business development. 5 years experience in the hospitality and tourism industry through my own high end bed & breakfast.
Intérêts: I like people and I enjoy speaking with people. The area below where it asks my teaching style doesn't allow me to tick all three boxes. I'm extremely adaptive and I can utilise all three methods of teaching. I chose fun and gregarious, as that is most likely the way to get to know someone. However, depending upon an individual's needs, sometimes they may need patient and methodical instruction. The more senses used to teach or show someone how to do something improves their retention speed.
I read a great deal. Since 2007 I have only purchased ebooks and currently have over 6000 in my library.
Currently importing, distributing and setting up a reseller network in Malaysia for robotic swimming pool cleaners. I am designing the 'How To' instruction manuals to include translations into Bahasa, Mandarin and English.
Assisting in troubleshooting problems people are having with their swimming pools. (Jointly with my husband and a local Malaysian partner)
My husband is a helicopter pilot so I'm also very interested in aviation topics; particularly those dealing with the Oil and Gas Industry and also Search and Rescue/Air Ambulance issues.
I have been running a high-end bed & breakfast through AirBnB for 4 years. This has allowed me to speak at length with people on holiday who English is a second language. The demographic would be equally European and Chinese where English is not their native language. Below are links to my listings so you can see the reviews I have received..... including the one star review which hasn't damaged my reputation and all my guests have a snicker when reading.

Sue Lee
Profession: Online ESL Teacher
Education, Writing and Journalism, Customer Support
For the past 6++ years I have worked online with VIPKID and 51Talk, teaching students from age 4 - 16 as well as some adults how to speak English. Also taught them grammar and phonics, some math.
Intérêts: I have been teaching English (ESL) for more than 6 years but have experience with other subjects like math, grammar and phonics in excess of 10 years. My background is varied as I always wanted to be home to raise my children and now enjoy life as a grandma. I have been a part of the business world as a private secretary for a number of years, worked with animals and an advocate against animal abuse for a great deal of my life and continue to be an animal lover. I have had a passion for teaching as well as working with animals as far back as when I was a child myself and I am so thrilled to be able to carry out these passions and dreams well into my adult life. Children are our future. I am happy to lead them on the path to a great future. Aside from my passion as an educator and advocating/loving animals, I also enjoy swimming and gardening.

Emma Hu
Profession: English Language Arts (ELA) Teacher
Education
Grades 7-10 in an international school setting
Intérêts: Hi! I'm Emma, a long term expat (12 years!) currently residing in Cambodia with my German husband.
I grew up learning French in school (as I was born in Canada), then became very interested in the German language when I went to study abroad in high school and later learned Italian through direct immersion. I continue to study German as it is important to my family life (communication with my in-laws and husband). I mention my language journey as I know that learning languages is a life-long journey that requires patience, intrinsic motivation, and a whole lot of time!
Professionally, I hold an MA in English Studies and an MA in Education. I am a secondary school English Language Arts teacher (grades 7-10). However, most recently I have had a career change to: MOTHER. I am a mother to a 1 year old bilingual daughter.
I used to work full-time on Cambly during my first masters degree (2018-2020). I have not been back in a few years!
Personally, I am a very introverted person who enjoys quality over quantity. Kindness, listening, and deep thought are important to me. I hope that these traits will help me guide you in your language learning journey!
