A bit about me
In the beginning of 2023, I moved to Cambodia with my partner. I used to have a comfortable life in the UK with many friends and my two cats, but I decided to give it up for a travel adventure (don’t worry, the cats are being taken care of by my family!). I hope to stay in South East Asia now, as I love the weather and the people. I teach Cambodian students at a local school, and in my holidays I go rock climbing, visit wildlife parks and learn about local culture. My interests include dancing, yoga, teaching children and cooking curries!
This is a friend I made on my travels!
I like to create a friendly, relaxed and focussed teaching atmosphere for all my students, and I look forward to meeting you and discussing your learning goals. I will teach mostly in English but I can help out in Japanese if necessary.
Thank you for checking out my profile, and I hope to see you soon!
