  Drink and Draw? Paint and Sip? Whatever you want to call it, it's an art party! I assist the Lead Artists as they guide attendees step-by-step through the process of painting a picture (with some wine along the way). My role involves set up, guest check-in/greeting, serving, advising, clean-up, and lots of encouraging! It's fun. You should come try it! Drink and Draw? Paint and Sip?

TAPIF - Teaching Assistant Program in France - USA

• United States
• Primary and Secondary Education
• 200 - 300 Employee

• English Teaching Assistant

  • Sep 2017 - May 2018

  Working as a language assistant meant promoting and encouraging French elementary school children to engage daily with the English language. It meant collaborating with fellow teachers to create lesson plans and educational goals for 12 classes. Over the course of the eight months I was there, I monitored students’ progress, administered evaluations, and adjusted curricula accordingly. In addition to my work, I also engaged with the French culture through sport, cooking, and traveling. There's a lot more to France than bread and wine, but I sure did write home about both.
