π Beyond the virtual classroom, I'm an adventurous soul. I have a deep love for the outdoors, bikes & cars. I often explore new places, go camping, and hiking, and indulge in activities like Mountain Biking and 4WD driving. When not teaching or adventuring, I cherish quality time with my loved ones, including my two daughters.
In addition to teaching/tutoring English. I love to talk about real-life situations and how to become a better person in everything we do, for the people around us and our children.
