Summary

Hi, I’m Catherine from Nairobi, Kenya — a native English speaker with a Bachelor’s degree and a 120-hour TEFL certification. I am passionate about education, cross-cultural communication, and helping young minds grow through language. With a calm, creative teaching style and strong interpersonal skills, I aim to create safe, engaging classroom environments where students feel seen, valued, and empowered to speak. I am ready to relocate and begin teaching in China, and I have all required documents: degree, TEFL certificate, valid passport, and police clearance. I’m open to working with kindergarten, primary, or middle school levels. I’m seeking a school that values heart, structure, and cultural exchange—and I look forward to growing alongside my students.
