My goal is to be an example for future generations to exceed and develop their mental and use it to properly achieve something great for themselves. One of them is Language, if you are great in it, it's sure you can be great in communication and with great conversation skills. I've Got many skills over the years that I would love to list here but we never stop learning so I have decided before doing anything, I will do more research. I should get some experiences to prepare myself. I have traveled in many countries, worked with Non-Profit Organizations, worked with Presidents of colleges, Translated books, proofread books, helped in many sections in French language. I also taught French online with Chinese students and two students from Washington State. I want to use my skills and knowledge in French to teach others who are struggling and want to increase their skills. Just so you know, you have the ability to be and do more than what you think, just find the passion and believe in yourself.
Thank You.
