I had a wonderful experience teaching people who were new to skiing. My very welcoming demeanor helped them feel more at ease to be able to take on the daunting task of learning to ski. I truly enjoyed working with diverse groups who flew in to live the dream and to learn to ski. If it was a large group, I tended to thrive as I was energized by the many tasks at hand.Lastly, my ability to project and to communicate clearly helped to make this a season to remember for the guests and for my personal and professional satisfaction.
