Hi!
I’m Thien, but I like being called Poca. It sounds friendly and fun.
I am an English teacher for the most part. As my major, I concentrate on daily life communication, and examination like TOEIC or IELTS.
However, I want to make more than just that. Therefore, I’m also a game developer, and an artist (though I quite suck at it ). 🙂

Working as an freelancer ever since 2021, there were many ups and downs. On the bright side, they were also the reasons that make me who I am today (we can also argue what does that even mean nowadays). Long story shot, I simply figured that I have a burning desire to create and show others some of my perspective. Lucky for me, I have languages such as English to do that.
A quick review on my profession, before working as an English teacher, I used to be a tour guide since 2021, participating many excursions. This opened up a few aspects that I’ve never thought of before. I really enjoy guiding people in certain fields while guiding tourists. My scope then did not stop at just speaking alone but also through different medias such as visualization or interaction.
Around that same time, I picked up teaching as another profession of mine. At first, it was all new and exciting. Soon later, those feelings were soon replaced with stress of class management and students’ learning curve. Unlike tour guiding, your action of teaching does not only have to reach the student, but it also have to affect how they think effectively and cognitively as well. Unfortunately for it, I have a nick for psychology of learning where I’m extremely curious of how a person approach and learn something new, or their retention ability.
