  • Descrição

    I'm a young professional from Ontario, Canada, with over 10 years of experience in management and operations. After completing a winemaking harvest season in the Maipo Valley, Chile 🍷, I am seeking a volunteer opportunity to support English language development in a school setting. I am highly organized, punctual, and possess a strong work ethic developed through a career in hospitality management.

    My Approach to Language Support 💡
    While I am new to formal classroom teaching, my professional background is rooted in training and communication. I believe that English is a vital tool for global connectivity, and I am eager to help students gain the confidence they need to succeed.

    Children & Youth: I focus on being a patient, encouraging presence. I enjoy supporting with classroom activities and helping students practice their pronunciation through structured play and conversation. 🏫
    Adult Learners: With my background in management, I can offer high-level conversational practice and help adults refine their "Professional English" for career advancement. 👔

    Skills & Professional Background 🛠️
    Hospitality & Communication: Having spent over a decade in front-of-house winery management, I am an expert in interpersonal communication, hospitality, and creating a welcoming environment. 🤝

    Experienced Trainer: In my previous roles, I have been responsible for training and mentoring staff. I am skilled at breaking down complex information so it is easy to understand. 📋

    Adaptable & Reliable: My experience in the wine industry means I am accustomed to physical work, long hours, and staying focused under pressure. I bring a "roll-up-your-sleeves" attitude to every project. ⚡

    Cultural Exchange & Language: Having worked for several months in a fast-paced Spanish-speaking environment during the Chilean harvest, I have developed a strong grasp of the language. 🌎 This experience allows me to bridge the gap between English and Spanish effectively in a classroom setting.
