Hello and thank you for the opportunity to get to know me. To start, I have over 30 years experience caring for, overseeing, and tutoring children. I worked as a school bus aide for six years and taught as a volunteer CCD teacher for ten years. While a stay-at-home mother, I tutored my now three grown children. My oldest son has a PhD in Biochemistry working in Worcester, my middle daughter is an attorney working in Boston, and my youngest daughter has obtained her bachelor's degree in psychology with a concentration in neuroscience and a minor in education. I have recently moved to the area and am looking for a part-time, flexible position. I enjoy working with children, especially aiding them with their studies as I know how difficult and demanding school has become. And unfortunately, school has become a job to our children. Anyone with a job understands the Read more importance of work/life balance. Anytime our jobs can be made easier and more fun, the more productive we are. Easing our work load allows us more personal freedom. We are happier as our work becomes less stressful and we can enjoy our free time with our family and friends. We gain self-esteem, pride, satisfaction, and contentment. Isn’t that the goal we all share for our children?
