Who Am I?

I'm Charmaine, a Canadian living and working abroad through teaching English. Growing up in a protected environment, at age 20, I went to study abroad and never stopped travelling since. I want to inspire and encourage other people to step out of their comfort zone and to go abroad.

Hong Kong

I currently reside in Hong Kong after my first ten months have proven to be the best year abroad. I currently work in a tutor centre for teacher coordination, lesson planning and an occasional English substitute teacher.

I originally came to Hong Kong in August 2014 to teach English at the local college called the Institution of Vocational Education (IVE). For nine months, I worked in the language centre, creating a positive English learning environment for students through workshops, discussions, tutorials and events. I helped students improve their pronunciation and presentation skills, as well as taught IELTS and other examinations on the side.
