Desired employment Primary TeacherAs a dedicated and professionally licensed teacher I am looking to expand my
experience in a new country. My wife and I have been teaching for over 8 years
and have the knowledge, skills, and attitude to make the classroom experience
exciting and meaningful. I am a team player with a kind heart and a great
attitude. Outside of school I am a long-distance runner, mountain and road bike
rider, and endurance athlete. I have competed in several triathlons and continue
to train and enjoy the health benefits of eating well and living well. My hobbies
include photography and video production, writing, creating and maintaining
websites, playing music, travel and exploration, and the occasional glass of wine
with good friends. In Thailand I created a bike club and have ridden thousands of
kilometres with my friends over the past 4 years. I love to connect with people
but being home with my wife and cooking healthy food is where my heart is.
