Summary:

I have a DELTA qualification and more than 8 years of language teaching experience in general english, exam preparation and �accent reduction� with some business work. I also bring skills in teacher development, staff management and school administration derived from my current position as senior teacher of a reputable school in Turkey. I would like to build on this experience if your school is looking for someone to fill a position of responsibility.

I am looking for work starting on or after October 15th, 2002.
