Bio
PHEAR KIMTHUON
Project Manager/ Linguist

A lot of willpower

Kimthuon started teaching English from his Grade 9. At the time, he was only 16 years old. From that, he then taught in different private schools, both in Oddar Meanchey and Siem Reap provinces. Also, he worked as project facilitator in the NGO "International Child Support". Since then, he has always sought academic and professional challenges. That led him to successfully got a bachelor's degree in Tourism Management, in 2018 at Build Bright University with an outstanding GPA: 3.81/4.

A career focused on languages

We are glad that Kimthuon started his linguist career with us in July 2019, with English<>Khmer as language pair. Besides, he has been an official English-speaking tour guide. As he usually works with a lot of foreigners, he has become fluent in English. And this, in various contexts.

A real asset

Kimthuon has always proven his skills and talents in completing different fields of projects in a timely manner and often went beyond our clients’ expectation. He is a bright and hardworking linguist, striving for perfection in everything he does. Thus, he provides high-quality translations and is always willing to help with urgent requests. Also, Kimthuon has remarkable communication skills. We can say that he demonstrates the utmost professionalism and integrity. It was then natural to us to promote him as one of our project coordinators in order to move forward and grow together. There is no doubt that Kimthuon is a real strength.
