Kimberly Guiatao’s journey at Lufthansa Technical Training Philippines is a true growth story - built step by step, with courage, passion, and continuous learning.
After graduating from a technical school, she took her first steps into aviation training in 2013, when a colleague introduced her to Lufthansa Technical Training Philippines. She started as a freelance instructor - supported by the communication skills and confidence she had developed earlier in her career.
"At first, I was nervous - especially as a woman entering this field. But I was given the chance."
That chance turned into a career. Over time, she transitioned from a freelance instructor to a full-time certified instructor - a milestone that reflects both her dedication and the trust placed in her. She grew from workshop training, teaching basic mechanical skills, into specialized fields like wiring, cabin work, and aircraft components. In 2023, she moved into classroom training, teaching Human Factors, Aviation Legislation, and EASA basic modules - before becoming a certified type training instructor for the Airbus A330 (B2) and trained for B737NG.
"Lufthansa Technical Training Philippines gave me a chance - and I’m truly grateful."
What still excites her most: people.
"Every day, I meet new trainees. They learn from me - but I also learn from them."
A defining moment? The call confirming her as a certified type training instructor.
"They trusted me. That gave me confidence. I’ll never forget it."
For her, teaching is a passion: "You have to believe in yourself. Be patient. Be kind. We teach, but we also learn every day."
Her advice: "Stay open, keep learning, and trust yourself, even if it takes time."
Today, she sees Lufthansa Technical Training Philippines as more than a workplace: "It feels like a second family. Like coming home."
Looking ahead, she hopes to see continued growth, trust, and global impact - while empowering people, especially women, to show what they are capable of.
"Everyone here works hard. Everyone wants to grow."
💛 This is what growth, opportunity, and empowerment look like - at Lufthansa Technical Training, every day.
