Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Amourelle and I recently returned from teaching English in South Korea. I taught ages 10 to 25 years (Elementary to University students.) It afforded me the opportunity to engage in a new culture foreign to my own, develop a sense of empathy for students who are heavily pressured to study and be a motivator and great support for them. Through this experience, I have grown to become sensitive to the needs of children and thus, will be a great Au Pair for your children. I am a teacher who believes in Edutainment- learning through having fun!
