More details about your skills
Some of my skills include teaching English. My passion for teaching started in 2019, when I visited Tanzania and helped in a Men's Literacy classroom. This was the first time I was ever in an English classroom and I loved it! When I returned to school, I decided to study Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. I have since spent more time teaching/tutoring English Language Learners throughout University and recently spent a year teaching English in Thailand.
Besides teaching, I am a really quick learner and would love to try new things, helping out wherever I am needed! I grew up working in my family restaurant so I have experience working in the service industry as well!
