Beschreibung

Meeting new friends and experiencing different cultures is a good habit. I enjoy teaching English, doing handyman and garden work, riding bicycles, playing football (soccer) & basketball, spending time at the beach and hiking when possible. I like doing interesting, worthwhile, and fun projects that have a positive impact.

Was könntest du arbeiten?

I worked for Seattle Children's Hospital (USA) doing fundraising and event management for more than 20 years ... so am very good at project planning and organizing. I also have handyman and gardening skills, both of which I enjoy doing a lot.

I have remodeled several older homes in Seattle - and built a new one - and recently spent five months with friends at their olive farm in California restoring a 65-year-old wood sailboat (see photos).

I have been teaching English (and other subjects) in Thailand for about 10 years, mostly middle school & high school but also have experience with primary students and college students / adults.

A long time ago I worked for the YMCA for seven years, managing youth programs including summer camps, sports leagues, and adventure trips for teens. I learned a lot about working with young people, much of which I still use today in teaching.

When involved in projects and activities I do my best and exceed expectations whenever possible. And I always try to have fun.

Was noch ...

Traveling, teaching, and working on projects is enjoyable and rewarding for me. I also love blues music, vintage bicycles, good books, and quiet time.
