Description
Olá, my name is Américo and I am from Brazil.

Besides teaching English I was the coordinator of a Language school.
I've worked as a lab assistant at University of Montana in the USA and had a scholarship there as a Petroleum Engineer student.
Now I work from home on a few Social Media.

Very calm and patient person and I really enjoy organizing things and make them more usable or efficient, I used to live in a house full of people and animals so I am aware of all daily responsibilities living surrounded by family 24/7 :)

I've taken care of three kids in Seattle - USA and they are like brothers to me and also volunteered as a caregiver, it was the biggest experience of my life.

Helped in the garden, cutting wood and making cement for a roof and a mezzanine in France.

I always had great feedback about everything I've gotten involved with. And if you need references let me know.

That's it...I am looking forwarding to meeting my new friends.

Beth, Tim and their friends were really nice to me. They made me feel like home on the first day. She always makes delicious dinners and they are very calm people.

Americo knows how to work! He is such a joy to have in the house! He takes instruction very well, and then he is careful to complete a task according to my requests.
