Teaching Experience

Starting in 2004 I have spent two to four months of most years in Chiapas, Mexico, as a volunteer. I teach beginning English to university students, and I teach photography and computer literacy courses (in Spanish) to the staff of the NGO where I volunteer. In 2014, I volunteered for two months as an English teaching assistant in public high schools in Colombia.
