Welcome to my efolio! My name is Emily Lee. I completed my undergraduate degree in the Bachelor of Science in Food Nutrition and Health, and obtained my BEd. upon graduation with a major in Home economics. Having taught abroad in both Taiwan and Thailand, and recently in Shenzhen, China, I have decided to further pursue my passion for teaching ESL and am in midst of becoming an ESL specialist. Currently I teach Senior Foods and Nutrition, ESL, and Planning 10 between two secondary schools in the Delta school district.
To provide a brief history of myself, I have travelled and resided in multiple cities within the United States and Taiwan. However, the majority of my childhood was in Taiwan, and it is the home that I associate my identity with. It was not until the end of my middle-school education that my parents and I decided that Canada would offer a unique and fulfilling education for me. I have since then resided within the beautiful British Columbia. Having been in both the international students program and the ESL program, as well as experienced living away from my parents and family since 15, I have experienced first hand the unique challenges that my ELL students face today. I look forward to continue to challenge myself and apply my learning as an ESL specialist.
