I have been working in Hong Kong for the last year and a half. During this time, I have gained a tremendous amount of experience working with individuals of different nationalities. As a dedicated and results-driven professional, I am passionate about leveraging my skills and experiences to contribute to a dynamic team. One of my key strengths is being able to adapt myself to different situations and scenarios. With a strong background in the education sector as well as higher education I thrive in challenging environments where I can apply my analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities. I am passionate about empowering students to achieve their academic and career goals through effective counselling and guidance. With a strong commitment to personal development, I have honed my skills in providing tailored career advice and support. My experience includes facilitating workshops, conducting one-on-one counselling sessions, and developing resources that help students navigate their educational paths and make informed career choices. I believe that every student has unique potential, and I am dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment where they feel supported and inspired to explore their aspirations. Previously I have worked in the UAE for 10 years and I am highly qualified in the area of special needs and inclusive education. I have worked with special needs which requires a great deal of patience and dedication. Working in an online schooling environment has also enabled me to help children who have special educational needs to adapt and thrive in a mainstream environment. I am currently looking for a new challenge and I am trying to move out of the school setting. I am an incredibly fast learner, and I am looking to move into a company where there is room for growth.
