This was an exiting week, I got another job! Now I have my regular job working at the coworking space, still writing the blog for the insurance agency and now I will also be taking care of kids and helping them with their online school while their parents are working. It is called shadow school.
This is a great help for employees during these tough times where parents have to find care for their children during the work week. This way no one has to quit their jobs to make sure their kids are getting an education.
I don’t have experience with teaching, just tutoring but I don’t think this will be very different. Their teachers will be doing the teaching, we have to make sure they are listening, doing their assignments and help if they have questions or if something is not clear.
The challenge will be that the children go to different schools and different grades so they will all have different lessons and assignments. Also, their semesters begin on different days and I think the school days begin at different times too.
On the positive side, it is only five children, who all know they have to keep distance from each other and always wear their face masks. Another good thing is that we have enough tables and space available to sit the children far from each other, probably divided by grade.
Wish me luck!

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
