Biography

I've been working for CELE since September 2016, and have previously taught English in Japan, the UK and South Korea.

Most recently, I was working from 2010-2016 at a university in South Korea where I taught on a range of different courses and acted as department coordinator. It was a fun and stimulating job, but after six years, I had started to grow roots.

I come from a small town in Somerset, which is in the South West of England. Big cities are always exciting places but I feel at home in the countryside. In the last few years I've swapped growing vegetables for raising two lovely children, but my retirement plan definitely involves cider, a shed and a pitch fork!
