Description
Born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan. After spending three years studying in Europe and countless solo travels, I finally decided to give back to the country by starting an English school in a small town in Taitung. Most of the kids here are indigenous. They are creative, beautiful, energetic, but underprivileged. They don't have enough resources to see the world outside of the town. And I want to change that. I want to help give them the ability to see the world with their own eyes. Hence, the English school. Kids will not only learn English here, we will help them with their homework, tell them stories about your countries, teach them manner, and most of all, build them wings to explore. Join me now!

Babysitting and creative play
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
In Dulan, Taitung, everybody is an island and the bridge to connect us is music and art. Good things are happening here in Dulan, where we thrive on the unique mix of people, artists, music, and the energy of the ocean.
The location of the school is perfect. A stone's throw away from a famous landmark (and iconic nightspot), the Sugar Factory. A couple of minutes ride to the beach by car or a 15 minute walk.
