RE: Building Friendships on Steemit - Tell Me Something About Yourself and Have a Chance to Win 10 SBD!

in #community7 years ago

Step 1. Comment on this post with some fact about myself:

-What do you do outside of Steemit?
I am a Language Teacher, an ESL Teacher,a Translator, an Interpreter, a Tourist Guide and a Musician.

Do you have a business or do you work at a job?
I am the owner of a small language Academy called "JAMZ Institute"; I also work in a High School and in another Language Academy called "Instituto Maria Curie".

-What is a moment in your life that you are really proud of?
I am proud of my two Brothers who have been Tattoo Artists since 1993 here in Venezuela; though one of them (our youngest Brother & my best friend) passed away 2 and 1/2 years ago. Back in the 90's there were few people with tattoos and it was a taboo to be tattooed. I myself have 10 tattoos and long hair, but I have earned myself a great reputation as an excellent Teacher due to hard work, commitment and accomplishing what I promise.

-What kind of hobbies and passions do you have?
I play football (soccer) with my ESL students and I also play basketball with them football on Saturdays and basketball on Sundays, I help them be better people and I try to buy them the team uniforms...
I play the bass and sing for my band AntorchA, but my musicians have moved due to hard times in Venezuela
-What about a fun fact?
When I moved to Venezuela,I spoke little to no Spanish, I used to curse out everybody when they did not even know what I was saying,that was back in the 90's

Thank you for sharing so much of your story! I’m so sorry to hear about your brother passing, he sounded like an amazing guy. It’s so cool to see that you have obviously found your passion with teaching. Those kids are lucky to have you!
