Description
I obtained TEFL certification in 2015 and engaged in casual teaching for 3 years. Over the past 10 years, I served part-time as a Missionary, transitioning to full-time 5 years ago. I've had the privilege of volunteering in various countries, including Brazil, Argentina, Australia, the Philippines, Switzerland, France, Bulgaria, and Colombia, contributing wherever needed.

In Brazil and Colombia, my focus included teaching basic English, tutoring, and providing face-to-face instruction for advanced students. Additionally, I offer online teaching to students in Bulgaria, Brazil, and Colombia to support their ongoing education when I'm not in the country.

While initially pursuing a career in cooking, I later switched to a major in Business, Marketing, and Promotion. After 18 years in marketing, I humorously transitioned to promoting my faith as a full-time Missionary, using teaching English as my platform.

What else ...
I luv to play cards, learning games, and spending healthy quality time with my students outside of class like movies, eating, going to the river, beach, or pool. I luv teaching about God, Jesus, and the Hold Spirit. I enjoy cooking and learning to cook. I'm teachable and I'm ok with not being perfect.
