I thrive on teaching new skills to students that they can use to develop a career or adopt as hobbies. I\u2019ve volunteered with Skills\/Comp\u00e9tences Canada since 1997, participating at the regional, provincial and national competitions as a Trainer and a member of the Provincial Technical Committee and National Technical Committee. I\u2019m proud to have been a Trainer at five WorldSkills Competitions.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nTraining Champions<\/strong><br \/>\nAll my competitors have been students in my clothing and textiles classes. So, it\u2019s logical for me to coach them at the WorldSkills Competition. I collaborate closely with the Expert in Fashion Technology who devises our competitor\u2019s training program. That includes consulting with a competitor who trained for WorldSkills Kazan 2019.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll be successful as long as our competitor completes the contest modules in a quick and effective way. She should be ready due to her accumulated skills, knowledge and mental preparedness. I trust she\u2019ll work hard and take time to enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I Love Volunteering<\/strong><br \/>\nAs a Trainer, my goals are always the same: To enhance my knowledge, and to facilitate our competitor to do their best. I believe my competitor chose me as her Trainer because she\u2019s a longtime student and competitor who I\u2019ve trained for three years. Our working relationship is solid. I\u2019m proud to help shape the next generation of skilled tradespersons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Skills Background I\u2019m a retired Home Economics teacher, specializing in Fashion Technology.
