I am a Cambridge Oral examiner as well as an Exam preparation course provider. I have a significant amount of relevant experience and skills that I gained during my career of 12 years. I am up to date with the latest methodology in teaching, and continue to develop and improve my skills through webinars conducted by Cambridge for their teachers.

In addition, I also have the ability to take the initiative and think under pressure to handle real-world problems that I will encounter in a company.
All in all, I am willing to go above and beyond when urgent situations arise without any complaints or hesitation. My focus here is to ensure my reliability when it comes to day-to-day work, and the Manager is able to trust things are getting done correctly without having to micromanage.
