My Summary
About Me
*Only available during school holidays and weekends*
I'm an experienced manny/private tutor with over 6 years experience working with children and I would like to offer my services to those families with little ones :-) I've worked as a supply teacher at different primary, secondary and SEN schools across London and I currently work as a manny for a British family (references available on request). I also have extensive experience teaching Spanish/English Language and Drama to both children and adults. More info below!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was born on the beautiful island of Tenerife in the sunny Canary Islands. I moved to London when I was 18 years old to pursue a career in Acting which has been one of my greatest passions since I was 13 years old. I trained at E15 Acting School in London for 3 years where I completed a 3 Year Degree in Drama.
I’m a warm and compassionate caring guy who loves working with children! I have a younger brother with Aspergers Syndrome and I love spending time with and looking after him. I assume a full parental role when I am with him and we are both constantly learning from one another; I am very organised and believe that children thrive with consistency and routine.
One of my dreams is to be a dad one day. I would love to adopt as well as having my own biological children. Ideally a football team of boys and girls from different nationalities!
I’m a spiritual guy and I meditate daily - something I’m happy to encourage children to do from an early age! I also eat very healthily, love working out and being active. I love being outdoors and in touch with nature and my favourite sports are horse riding, fencing, surfing, archery and martial arts but kicking a football around the garden and playing in the pool is great fun too.
I currently work for a wonderful family part time looking after two boys (8 and 10 years old). I’ve been with them for two years now.
I am looking to do some extra hours either at the weekends or during some school holidays.
