My name is Evan, a 46-year-old sports philosopher and ethicist currently pursuing my PhD. I am seeking for a meaningful opportunity to support your family over the next several years as I complete my doctoral studies. I possess a unique blend of professional insight and personal experience.
My academic background offers me a unique advantage in assisting young people in developing strong critical thinking skills. Added to this, I have a sturdy foundation in sports and physical fitness, which helps me plan engaging activities. I understand that some children thrive by being active, some prefer quieter, focused time, and others benefit from a blend of both!
Currently, I am focusing solely on my doctoral studies for the next few years. Although most of my time is dedicated to reading and writing, I also mentor university students remotely. I take a pastoral approach in guiding them as they develop, helping them navigate deadlines, study skills, and personal issues. While university teenagers are fairly autonomous, this experience has deepened my understanding of their developing cognitive and emotional needs. When teaching in person, I create a secure and welcoming space for everyone to express themselves while using formal teaching methods to optimize learning.
Being single and focused on my studies, I bear the stability and commitment needed to dedicate my time and energy to cater to your family's needs.
Experienced Care: I've previously enjoyed caring for children, including a 7-9 year old boy and a 10-12 year old girl, focusing on fun weekend adventures and after-school activities. My background includes caring for a boy who had lost his mother, as well as helping to care for both a special needs older brother and a younger brother while growing up.
A Solid Background: My educational foundation is in Psychology (including developmental psychology) and Philosophy—a perspective I find very helpful when connecting with young people. I also have professional experience teaching young students as a former Brazilian Jiu Jitsu instructor. I’m Canadian firstly (from the London area) and I lived in England and Scotland for 10 years which means I’m international but also local.
Reliable & Healthy: I maintain a fit and healthy lifestyle, have a clean driving record, and own a newer SUV with child-friendly seats. My SUV has AWD and proper winter tires and it’s loaded with safe driving tech. It’s also dog friendly, too, if your wee one needs social time at the park.
I'm genuinely looking for work that allows me to connect with and help a family. As an aside, I have two wonderful Goldendoodles, so I understand the importance of nurturing emotional needs, whether they're canine or human!
I'd love to chat and see if I might be a good fit for your family.
