"An ESL Teacher Newbie Joins the Hive and ASEAN Hive Community"

Hello, ASEAN Hivers!!! Hope that everyone is fine today. I am so thankful that I joined this kind of community where I can share my thoughts and activities here.

I would like to introduce myself first. By the way my name is Mieca and I am 25 years old from Cebu City, Philippines.

Furthermore, I am working as an English Online teacher. I did not take it as a job because teaching is my passion. I chose this job because I have a son who is 3 years old now and I need to take care of him.

Working at home is very challenging yet I am happy because you can manage your working time. There are advantages and disadvantages in this kind of work. Your only problem with this is yourself, you need to balance everything.

During the weekend I will make sure that me and my son go and have some time to relax. I will let him play in the mall and eat outside. I really make sure that we enjoy both.

We are facing different kinds of struggles every single day but always remember that every problem there is a solution. Yes, we feel tired sometimes. That's normal because we are all human beings. When you feel that way just take a pause or have some break, find the positive side of life and after that go on to face the future with a big smile and confidence.

I also want to express my heartfelt gratitude to my friend @antonette who introduced me to this kind of community. This really helps me a lot. By seeing people posting their own side of stories in life.

Thank you so much for the very warm welcome in this community. Hope you like my story and get motivated. .
