English is my second language as well as the universal language. I therefore feel that it is key for every individual to be able to speak it fluently. I want to teach children about the language and instil a love for the language, as well as its poetry and literature.

I was top of my class from grade 1, and I was exempt from academic literacy within 4 months of my first year at varsity. In my line of work, English is imperative, which has taught me to be more articulate, as has my love of reading.
