Descripción
Location: Isla colon. Bocas del toro.

Working online with kids and live workshops in an international school and other community center.
Being Tourguide before Pandemia but working hard in this chess project. My part time job is related in Tourism activities.
My profession IT , but since 2016 i live in Bocas, working in Tourism. Now I am building up an Education program related to chess for the community.

Main activities ongoing
*️️️️️ SELINA saturdays & sundays. Open workshops. We play chess with everyone! (Help with kids is really welcome)
* TANGERINE international School. After school> Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.
* ONLINE lessons Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday.
*️️️️️ My dog really likes company, so dogsitting and spending time with her is part of this volunteering work.
*️ I do study Chess methods for be a better Teacher/Player, i need a partner to sit down with me and study or discuss things.

Volunteering in preference:
1. Experience and support in promote in social media instagram, facebook. etc. Basic Designer skills.

2. Teachers, Psychologists or/and Pedagogists will contribute a lot in this project. Teaching to kids or youngsters is not easy task so experience to do it, or techniques may help a lot. We learn about chess so your interest in the game is important.

3. I like learn a bit languages, phrases and greetings in Deutsch, French, Polski , Russki, Svenska, etc. We can do exchange hours.

I expect a volunteer committed & focus to be part of the process of this project.

My stay with Jou was awesome- he was a great host and really helped me to have a great time with both the volunteering and seeing Bocas.

Beata, helped me few weeks with dog walking , recording videos and extras things sometimes. I was in the need of a extra hand and she showed me full commitment and a lot of energy to do whatever i need. A bit opinionated but i understood she wants to be busy and to have a purpose of her volunteering. Dziekuje Fajna :) Powodzenia

This hostel immediately became my home as soon as I stepped in on one very early morning. Every single person who works there made a very positive impression on me and it was really sad to leave this place after over a couple of weeks of volunteering.
