Awalnya saya sungguh tidak akan pernah menyangka kalau pada akhirnya saya bisa menjadi pengajar Bahasa Indonesia bagi Penutur Asing atau yang biasa disebut dengan istilah (BIPA).Latar belakang pendidikan saya adalah lulusan pendidikan Bahasa Inggris dari Universitas Negeri Semarang. Sepanjang perjalanan karier,saya sering mengikuti program BIPA yang diselenggarakan oleh Balai Bahasa. Ternyata dari pengalaman tersebut, saya sangat tertarik untuk mendalami bidang BIPA. Selain itu saya juga pernah berkesempatan mengajar BIPA pada siswa asing yang ada di Provinsi Bengkulu yang juga difasilitasi oleh Balai Bahasa.
