Hello, I have experience babysitting and tutoring children of many ages, infant through high school. I am the fifth out of seven children, and my parents taught us all to take responsibility around the house. By the age of four, I was changing diapers. I enjoy to clean, organizing, and helping around the house. Also, I love cooking, as I have prepared meals for my family of 9 for 3 years. Through my time spent living in a large family, tutoring, teaching, babysitting, and coaching, I have learned that knowing children personally is essential to building a fun, respectful, and trustworthy relationship. I have learned to adapt my teaching style as needed and engage with children to learn more about their interests and how they can grow. I spent a month in Thailand teaching English to students, as well as students in Mexico once I turned sixteen. I am fluent Read more in English and Spanish, and I have spent a year at a gap year program focused on Christian Leadership, started by Chick-fil-A's founding family. I would love to learn more about your family. In fall 2018 I will be continuing my online College degree as a junior and would be honored to join you in equipping your children to mature into successful adults. It's important to support children emotionally and physically, but also in understanding who they are. At such a young age, the possibilities in life are endless. My goal is that they grow up believing that they are capable, willing to learn, and assured of themselves.
