What kind of job are you looking for?

I have diverse training and skills and I am waiting for the right opportunity to come along. I am looking to work in one of the three follow areas:

1.) Teaching English As a Second-Language. I am TESOL certified, including a 120 hour teaching practicum. I have taught overseas in Asia. My
passion is teaching, especially high school students or adults. I teach with excellence, both in a classroom setting and a small or individual setting.

2.) Using my many social services classes, I'd love to be a life skills coach. I care deeply for women coming out of prison, getting off drugs, or wanting to turn their lives around. I would love to mentor or disciple young women or families into healthy lifestyles which contribute to society and their overall happiness and success.

3.) Finally, I would also be happy to further use my research and analysis skills. I feel that my undergrad research jobs taught me hands-on and practical research abilities. I would like to work individually or on a team conducting meaningful research.
