Recently retired, I find myself eager to return to a field I’ve always been passionate about: teaching. With a deep-rooted enthusiasm for working and engaging with students, I am excited to leverage my ample free time to contribute positively to their development. I derive immense satisfaction from helping students grow and improve themselves. My years of experience in finance and banking have provided me with a comprehensive understanding of various sectors within the industry, including credit reviews, property and trade finance applications, personal and home loan approvals as well as savings and investment advice as I am a qualified FAIS representative at Standard Bank of South Africa ltd. This expertise enriches my perspective, allowing me to offer valuable insights into real-world applications of banking and financial principles. Additionally, I value the diversity of working with international students, as it enhances both my experience and their learning journey.

最近退休后，我渴望回到我一直热爱的领域：教学。我对与学生一起工作和互动有着根深蒂固的热情，我很高兴能利用我充足的空闲时间为他们的发展做出积极的贡献。帮助学生成长和提高自己让我感到无比满足。我在金融和银行业工作多年，经验丰富，让我对行业内的各个领域有了全面的了解，包括信用审查、房地产和贸易融资申请、个人和住房贷款审批以及储蓄和投资建议，因为我是南非标准银行有限公司的合格 FAIS 代表。这些专业知识丰富了我的视野，让我能够对银行和金融原则的实际应用提供宝贵的见解。此外，我重视与国际学生合作的多样性，因为这既丰富了我的经验，也丰富了他们的学习之旅。

I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of KwaZulu-Natal, where I also completed a one-year Postgraduate Higher Diploma in Education. My professional journey began as an English educator, first at Girls High School for a year and then at Rosefern Primary School for two years. Seeking new opportunities, I transitioned to Standard Bank South Africa Ltd., where I initially served as an Assistant Business Manager for a decade, managing client accounts and supporting business operations. During this time, I earned a Certificate in Banking and completed all examinations to become a Certified Associate of the Institute of Bankers of South Africa CAIB(SA). I was subsequently promoted to Debt Recovery Manager, where I led a team focused on optimizing debt recovery processes. My effective leadership and strategic insights led to a promotion to Head of Department, directing operations for nine years. In 2006, I advanced to the role of Commercial Business Account Analyst, responsible for analyzing complex commercial accounts and crafting strategic solutions to drive business growth. I held this senior position for 16 years until my resignation in 2022. Returning to my passion for education, I took a position at Sobantu Secondary School as an English educator in 2023, while also providing private tuition to students needing additional support.

我拥有夸祖鲁纳塔尔大学的文学士学位，我还在那里完成了为期一年的研究生高级教育文凭。我的职业生涯始于一名英语教育者，先是在女子高中工作了一年，然后在罗斯芬小学工作了两年。为了寻求新的机会，我转到南非标准银行有限公司，最初在那里担任了十年的助理业务经理，管理客户账户并支持业务运营。在此期间，我获得了银行证书并通过了所有考试，成为南非银行家协会 CAIB(SA) 的认证会员。随后，我被提升为债务追偿经理，领导一个专注于优化债务追偿流程的团队。我有效的领导能力和战略洞察力使我晋升为部门主管，指导运营九年。2006 年，我晋升为商业业务客户分析师，负责分析复杂的商业账户并制定战略解决方案以推动业务增长。我担任这个高级职位 16 年，直到 2022 年辞职。重拾对教育的热情，我于 2023 年在索班图中学担任英语教育工作者，同时还为需要额外支持的学生提供私人辅导。
