Profile

I am a precise, organized, and punctual multi-lingual researcher and teacher with experience of using Swedish and English in my work. Since successfully concluding my MA in Historical Research at Lancaster University while multitasking, doing contracted research and market based research alongside my studies; I have been focusing on pursuing a career in teaching. Following my recent relocation to China, I have mainly been involved in English teaching as well as editing projects for companies such as Nokia, Microsoft and Lenovo. In general I am a highly international and multilingual person, wishing to learn more and develop myself and my career further.
