Summary
A cheerful, people-oriented and disciplined individual, I enjoy working together and building harmonious relationships with others. With a love for language and media, I believe strongly in connecting meaningfully with people through engaging content. My altruistic nature coupled with the skills that I have learnt such as writing effectively to convey ideas with clarity, help prepare me to be a professional. Having an eye for detail and exhibiting a drive for excellence, my strengths include balancing the role of a supporter and leader in different situations. I believe that learning has no limits and I eagerly seize every opportunity for personal growth.
I enjoy spending quality time with my loved ones, engaging in physical activities, taking photographs, or treating myself to some retail therapy. While I find delight in me-time like reading a book or an article in a cozy setting, I am always up for a cup of coffee and love being on the move!

Rachel Tan's Skill Profile
English Preschool Teacher @ Bethel Day Care Centre
When I was working at Bethel Day Care Centre (Jun 2020 - Jul 2023), I demonstrated Social Media skills when I was in charge of the schools Social Media platforms, engagement with current and prospective parents, and documentation of school-wide events and activities. Taking the initiative, I proactively crafted a Social Media calendar with my team, created interactive Instagram and Facebook posts to suit our target audience. Furthermore, I diligently took photographs and videos of events before designing and publishing them on Social Media. As a result, I managed to positively affect the engagement with parents as many parents of children currently enrolled in the school followed and liked the posts. Additionally, documentation of events attracted prospective parents, and allowed all parents to attain better understanding of the activities their children are engaged in.
