I will be in Switzerland for most of summer before I join AmeriCorps in the Fall. For the past 4 summers I have enjoyed helping the ex-pat community with all kinds of imaginable chores and hope that this summer will be no different! I am reliable, friendly, and patient and have years of experience working with children in both an academic and a social setting. I am willing to provide tutoring in English, History, Math or Science and have babysat children ranging from ages 9mths-15yrs. In addition, I love animals and would be more than happy to look after them while you are on vacation. I will be available from May 19th to mid-August (with the exception of the days between June 26th and July 11th) but feel free to contact me anytime before that via email. Looking forward to working with you, your children and any plants or animals you may have!

My parents work at the Middle School and Upper School. I graduated last year from Cornell University and am currently working to pay for my Master’s program in England next year. I am available to babysit every weekday after seven and most weekends. I have a lot of experience with children having worked at summer camps for the last five years (including ZIS summer school), and now as an after school activities teacher and a substitute teacher at ZIS Lower School. I am also looking to house sit this summer. I am willing to look after pets, take care of the garden, and clean the house during my stay watching over your home. I captained the Singapore Under 16 football team, then I captained SK Lierse Under 19s and played for Lierse Reserves (1st division Belgian team). After I left Europe I captained the Cornell University Football (soccer) team. I have experience coaching at the ZIS Lower School, coaching children in Ghana, and in Belgium.
