Description
I am a teacher who works internationally. While I enjoy my 2-legged little friends, I am taking a year off to dedicate myself to other passion and refill my bucket. While I am home, I am volunteering at the animal shelter. My interest is helping animals and the environment. These 2 interests make me happy, fulfilled, and help me to be more empathetic, giving, and understanding.

More details about your skills
I have a masters degree in education and have spent the majority of my adult life working abroad. I am used to working with others, students, parents, and coworkers, with backgrounds and nationalities different from my own. I am certified to teach preschool through grade 8 and English as an Additional Language. I have a good rapport with children.
I have completed 100 hours of Yoga teacher training and have taught yoga to children as an after school activity. I enjoy sports and lifting weights, but hope to spend more time outside. I am strong and healthy, rarely, if ever, calling in sick. My work ethic is strong and I will do what is necessary to complete tasks to the absolute best of my ability.
I have been a vegetarian for over 25 years and a vegan for the last 6 years for animal welfare reasons. I love animals and want to learn more about them and how to protect them. I donate to a variety of animal charities, my favorite is my home state of Louisiana, is Chimp Haven.
I am keen to learn more about social media as I see it as a means of generating attention for organizations that rely on public support. I hope to hone my skills on creating captivating content for Instagram and Facebook. I am currently making a webpage using google sites for prospective employers. I am not super tech savvy but I am learning and evolving in my skills.
I am a good public speaker, having lectured, given professional development, and regularly interact with parents regarding their most priced possessions, their children.
