Description of tutoring experience

Looked after 2 year old girl recently for a few days, and in the previous years I tutored an 8 year old boy in English language and occasionally helped with other homework subjects. Duration of this was two-almost three weeks. I worked hand in hand with the boy's guardian and his school teacher got regular updates with every session. This was a freelance job and more of a favor to someone who needed it, but the experience will stay with me forever.

Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I am Katelyn, a 20 year old high school graduate aiming to find a job to help save for my own car and pay for my upcoming studies, as well as gain more personal and work experience with a wonderful family such as your own.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I absolutely adore kids, and I’ve wanted to work with them since I was old enough to understand what I actually wanted. I plan on studying to become a teacher someday, and this job would mean the world to me. I have my driver’s license (automatic) and have been driving for a little less than two years.

Hobbies and other interests

I love reading, listening to music, and spending quality time with family and friends. I write stories in my free time and hope to publish at least one book someday. I like swimming and walking as often as I can. My favorite past time is sleeping whenever I don't feel like doing anything productive. I love cooking and collecting books, riding horses and I absolutely adore dogs and pets alike.
