About

Hi, I'm Iman. A Canadian national who is looking for opportunities in Dominican Republic for employment. The city does not matter to me as long as I'm safe enough and make a comfortable living. I am hard working, responsible and an outgoing person. I'm currently looking at jobs in sales, serving, telemarketing, teaching English or in the travel sector. My written and spoken English is excellent however I'm still learning Spanish. Irrelevant to this but also a very good dancer. So learning the Latin dances would be another one of my interests. I have been to the DR twice particularly to the Sosua- Cabarete area so I have an idea of what to expect. I am also TEFL certified and would love to help children with their English language skills. If anyone have any tips for me or know of any job openings, please do approach and I'll appreciate your help.
Interests: cultures, food, social work, politics, dance, music, arts, religion, history, education, philosophy, science, criminology

Occupation

I am Job seeker.
