TalktoCanada.com Teacher of the Week – Dawna Hung

Hi! My name is Dawna Hung.  I was born and raised in Ontario, Canada.  I have an Honors Bachelor of Arts with a major in History and Arts Administration.  I am returning to school this fall to pursue my Bachelor of Education.  I love music, theater, art, puzzles, and sitting outside and watching the sun rise.  I am also an avid reader.  The last book I read was an autobiography called, Sorrow Mountain: The Journey of a Tibetan Warrior Nun by Ani Pachen.  If I had to describe myself in three words they would be: friendly, realistic, and open-minded.

I love travelling and experiencing different cultures, which led me to teach in South Korea prior to teaching for TalktoCanada.  It was wonderful because I was able to immerse myself in another culture and lifestyle that was very different from mine.  Teaching with TalktoCanada allows me to do what I love;  teach English and meet a lot of different individuals.  I have the opportunity to interact with students of all different backgrounds and cultures, and I learn a lot from them.  I am completely happy and lucky that I get to work with such wonderful students through TalktoCanada.

Words to live by: “The most important thing in life is to stop saying “I wish” and start saying “I will”. Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.”
