Description
Hello, I am traveling once again and want to volunteer my time to help others learn English, build up their farms, or help rehab the local environment. I have done this several times in the past without Workaway and have found the time spent rewarding. It has proven to be a great way to make new friends in a foreign land. My profession is in the construction industry, and I have done commercial fishing as well. Teaching English is an interest of mine, with that being said, I am no teacher but have some experience putting together lessons for students. I suppose my best attribute related to helping others learn English is my clear accent. I was raised in an area of my country where an accent neutral style of English is spoken. Having conversations with students is where I shine. I love to talk and listen and generally enjoy helping others gain strength in their efforts to learn what is arguably the most useful language on the planet. My construction skills are well rounded with the bulk of my experience installing underground infrastructure and building roads & highways. I have done some carpentry & plumbing and can be useful with small engines.
