Kelly2428 - Profile

Hello, I’m teacher Raquel but you may call me Kelly. I took up Bachelor’s Degree in Public Administration at Universidad de Manila. And I would like to share a part of our family’s story in my mother side. At the end of world war 2 my great grandmother was married to a Spanish man and they have a son (father of my mother). My great grandmother doesn’t want to go to Spain so she ran away and her husband was looking for them relentlessly but he never found them because my great grandmother changed her last name from Rodriguez to Acman (a Filipino surname). He went to Spain in despair and eventually died in an airplane. We never met our relatives in Spain. ;( I live and grew up here in the Philippines. I worked as a Subscription Coordinator in the number one leading magazine publication in the Philippines before I decided to work full-time as an Online English teacher. I’ve been an English teacher for almost 11 years now and in addition to improving myself as a teacher, I took 120-hour TEFL course where I learned how to helped students complete homework assignments and broaden their understanding by connecting to the world outside their community. I created lessons that engaged all learners by applying a variety of teaching methods and utilizing SMARTboard technology. I formed cooperative learning groups, organized individualized projects and implemented learning style research in every lesson. Alternative assessment methods, such as portfolios, rubrics and performance assessments, in combination with traditional tests, enabled me to evaluate the students individually and comprehensively.

I am passionate about teaching children and forge relationships with them that help build a sense of confidence and enable them to grow as learners.
