English Language Partners Taranaki - New Plymouth Central
About English Language Partners Taranaki
I am a public sector professional with a career portfolio that spans human development, policy implementation and stakeholder engagement. I have worked as a career development consultant for new migrants, held policy advisory and contract management roles at Tertiary Education Commission, and am currently a Business Development Manager at Education New Zealand.
I am also a migrant with a Southeast Asian Chinese heritage who loves to write and connect with others whose lives and work resonate with my aspirations and experiences. The process of feeling and believing you belong in a new country can be challenging, and also depends on the reciprocal efforts of others. I’m still on that journey but want to share it with others.
I majored in English literature and sociolinguistics in my undergraduate study, and traversed a path of writing and communications related jobs before taking up a lecturer role in business communications. In 2013, I completed a Master of Arts in Teaching, specialising in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) which inspired me to consider a career in international education. I moved from Singapore with my young family to New Zealand in late 2014 to study for a PhD at the University of Waikato in Hamilton. My research was about understanding how international students engaged their peers for support for their academic learning. While I initially aspired to be an academic, the limited opportunities at that time led me to consider policy jobs. I moved to Wellington in mid-2019 for work and now consider the capital my home.
