Lucy Pearmain

I am a New Zealand citizen currently working in central Vietnam.

Alhamdulillah, I reverted to Islam three years ago.

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts, a Graduate Diploma in Secondary Education, and an Advanced Diploma in ESL/EFL/TESOL/TEFL. I studied in Australia and have been traveling for six years.

I have almost seven years of experience in total teaching Visual Art and English as a second language.

I enjoy being involved in art projects as a volunteer as I have traveled throughout SE Asia.
