Sharon K. Couzens de Hinojosa aka, naturegirl321
Lima, Peru
I have lived and worked (mainly teaching English) in the US, Scotland, Spain, the Czech Republic, China, Korea, and Peru. And I have also taught short-term in Venezuela and Taiwan. I'm a regular poster on Dave's ESL Cafe, Expat Peru, Living in Peru, and ELT-World. I realise how difficult it can be to find teaching positions in Latin America and this has led me to create The LA Job List. I also created TEFL Tips to give teachers guidance about teaching. Since I’ve been in Peru since August 2006, I wrote The Ultimate Peru List to help those in or moving to Peru. My work has been featured in Transitions Abroad, Viva Travel Guides, TEFL News, ELT World, and Ezinearticles. When not writing or teaching English, my husband and I spend time redecorating our flat in Lima.
