Hobbies
I love reading and writing more than anything. I watch a lot of movies and know a lot about pop culture, particularly in regards to cinema. I speak conversational Spanish. I've lived in three different countries on two continents (America, South Korea, and Thailand). I have traveled extensively and plan to continue to see the world. I'm talkative and outgoing, and I have a good sense of humor. I know how to balance fun and work in an academic setting, so that your child will be engaged in learning but won't be bored.
