About Sze Leng Tan:
I am currently a self-employed TEFL teacher in Malaysia. Previously, I worked as an ESL teacher in China for a total of 6 years and taught in various institutions in Malaysia. In addition, I had experience in the field of customer service (i.e. served as a cabin crew in Emirates Airlines). I am also a holder of master's degrees in linguistics from the University of Glasgow and University of Malaya.
I am presentable, interpersonally and inter-culturally competent, having lived in the US, UAE, Malaysia and the UK. I am also optimistic and passionate about yoga, teaching, travelling, languages, people and diversity.
