Welcome to my Web Folio!
My name is Miranda Hoang but everyone calls me Mandy. I am a registered dental hygienist from Lucan, Ontario with a passion for personal and professional growth. Throughout this web folio you will learn about the academic requirements of the ENGL 301 Technical Communication Course I was enrolled in through the University of British Columbia, as well as my interest in the ever evolving profession of dental hygiene. This course has allowed me to develop my professional writing skills, which has proven to be beneficial in achieving future goals. My professional aspirations involve developing and curating a background in current educational methodology concepts, in hopes it will lead me towards a career as a dental hygiene educator.
I’ve attempted to develop this page in an easy to follow format so it is as user friendly as possible. You will find the following pages on this blog….
Application Package– The objective of the application package assignment was to draft the necessary documents for an application to a job posting we found online. The posting cited in this package was found on the CDHA job board and was targeted towards a Registered Dental Hygienist at a Periodontal/Orthodontic dental office. I chose to tailor this assignment to this posting because the experience I could gain within a practice such as this aligns with my future goals in academia. The assignment link is in the form of a PDF file, and includes my cover letter, résumé, three letters requesting references, as well as the details of the job posting cited in MLA format.
Best Work– This page is pretty self explanatory. I have included some of the completed ENGL 301 assignments. The work on this page includes….
- Revised Definition Assignment
- Revised Peer Review of the Definition Assignment
- Revised Formal Report Proposal and Progress Report with Surveys
- Revised Proposal Memo
- Revised LinkedIn Best practices memo
- Revised Memo to Evan Crisp
- Revised Complaint letter and Response letter
- Revised Peer Review of a Formal Report

Professional Organizations– As a professional member of two organizations, I thought it would be helpful to provide links should you be interested in learning more.
- The College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario regulates the practice of dental hygiene in the interest of the overall health and safety of the public of Ontario
- CDHA exists so that its members are able to provide quality preventive and therapeutic oral health care as well as health promotion for the Canadian public
