Objectivesummary
My name is Thet Wai Hmuee and my hobby is to learn new languages. I started teaching to my friends' siblings at their request, and soon found joy in sharing the languages I know. Since 2022, I have been working as a part-time language teacher. I am a native Burmese speaker with proficiency in Japanese, English, and Chinese. I hold JLPT N1 in Japanese and HSK 4 in Chinese. While I have not yet taken the TOEFL or IELTS, I have taught English to elementary and intermediate students. My students in Japanese and Chinese have successfully passed their proficiency exams, and I consistently receive positive feedback. I am now eager to teach online classes internationally to gain more experience.
