IZADORA, 32 ÅR

DEAR HOST FAMILY... My name is Izadora. I am from Brazil. I live with a Nice Danish family in Copenhagen center. I come from a very small town, Palmeira dos Índios AL state. I’m a very responsible, flexible, respectful, independent, and helpful person who loves children. I can offer you references. My current host family has 2 girls, 4 and 8, my duties are pick up them at school, play, give them snacks. Sometimes the parents go to concerts, and go to hang out by themselves so i also stay with them, in these moments i also put them to sleep. I also worked with a swedish/brazilian host family that had 4 kids, i only took care of the 7 yo girl4 yo old boy. I had the same duties with them. Im also able to clean and cook if you need. I would like to tell you about my experiences with kids in Brazil. Since the age of 14, I worked with children as particular teacher/nany, although my family always provided for my sustenance. I always thought it was important to get my own money, so I started to make Ice cream with the help of my mother to sell. I used to sell jewelry and crafts. I was teacher in two schools in two diferent cities about 1 and a half hour from my city. I used to travel everyday from Monday to Thursday on mornings and monday and tuesday mornings and afternoons, every week and I get free fridays. It Means 21 hours a week in total. I teach English since kindergarten to high school to teenagers. In 2014 I got a government scholarship (PIBID) to develop educational projects in the area of English language as a teacher. I have experience with non relatives. Vanderli who has 2 twin boys with 9 months Inácio and Francisco. Ynara and Yan Mateus, who were 7 months and 5 years old when I started to care for them. I use to prepare meals, playing, and do some housework. For Ynara, I used to shower her, change diapers, and put her to sleep. I was a particular teacher of Yan Mateus. Thanks to this experiences, I learned to follow the development of the kids. I became interested in child psychology and I still have hopes to study it someday. So, for while, I developed ways to work with kids as I studied. I study English in UNEAL and there I could get great opportunities to develop my professional side as a teacher. I got a scholarship from government and since 2014 I make projects about english teaching. In this time space I could make a project about playfulness in English classes. I spent 2 years in internships as a teacher in different grades and I had students from 10 to 17 years old. With this teacher i could knew better my work, I meet the au pair program and now I’m here writing to you. I know first aid because I am a technical in buildings and it was included in this course. I also can swim. I love to dance (zumba and Just dance on WEE) and when I’m free i like to go out with my friends to the gym, the movies, museums, theaters festivals, restaurants as well as walking in nature or acessing internet. That's a bit of my life and, sincerely, believe me, I am very curious to meet you. I look forward with great joy and hope to meet and befriend a very nice and special family. Best regards
