My experience includes teaching primary and secondary school
for 25+ years, working with an e-learning company, e-tutoring high
school, graduate and other students in the US, and working as a content
developer and trainer for blind students. I find voluntary work very rewarding, and have worked at a hospice and with the "Make a wish foundation."
For the last ten years, I have focused on writing, including
developing English language modules for the national open university,
authoring 30+ educational books in English for national and
international publishers, writing articles and blogs, and content for
organizations. I enjoy writing articles on the health channel for www.suite101.com and as a travel writer for Associated content, constant content, 2 blogs on blogger.com (one on India, specially for my blogit friends!) and travel reviews for www. tripadvisor.com, and www.trazzler.com.
I live in New Delhi, India, and love reading, writing and traveling!
