Dr. Choi's Homestay

Homestay in Kitchener, Canada

Hello parents and students,

My name is Cindy. I am a quiet, friendly, and nature-loving person. I finished my PhD degree at the University of Toronto and currently working as a social service program development manager in an NGO. I am committed to serving cancer patients, and Chinese immigrants. My career passion is to offer art therapies to enhance community members' mental well-being. Although I am single and I don't have any children, I have worked as a private English tutor before and I am experienced in interacting with children and teenagers. I will be happy to provide students with a lovely home, and a quiet and encouraging environment to study and to live happily in this beautiful country. I can also provide students with opportunities to join art, cultural, and volunteering events and to interact with English speakers and immigrants in the communities.

In my leisure time, I love cooking, drawing, and doing all kinds of outdoor activities. I love to travel too. I have been to a few countries including Paris, Turkey, Egypt, Greece, Aruba, Japan, Taiwan, China, and more. I am happy to share with students stories of my international experiences.

My house is very clean and just recently renovated. All new furniture will be prepared before students move in.

My house rule is very simple:
*** For health reasons, no pet, no smoking, no drug (zero tolerance).
*** No overnight guests. Daytime guests are allowed if notified in advance. No transfer of door key.
*** No damage to the room and furniture.
*** Respect, be kind, be considerate.

I am looking forward to meeting you : )

Cheers,
Cindy Choi

你好，

我叫辛迪 Cindy。我是一个安静、友善、热爱自然的人。我在多伦多大学完成了博士学位，目前在一家非政府组织担任社会服务项目发展经理。我致力于为癌症患者和华人移民服务。我的职业热情还包括治愈艺术来提升社区成员的心理健康。虽然我是单身，也没有孩子，但我之前曾担任过私人英语家教，在与儿童和青少年的互动方面有丰富的经验。我很乐意为学生们提供一个有爱心的家，一个安静、令人鼓舞的环境，让他们在这个美丽的国家快乐地学习和生活。我还可以为学生提供参加艺术、文化和志愿活动以及与社区中说英语的人和移民互动的机会。

闲暇时，我喜欢烹饪、画画和进行各种户外活动。我也喜欢旅行。我去过一些国家，包括巴黎、土耳其、埃及、希腊、阿鲁巴、日本、台湾、中国等等。我很高兴与学生分享我的国际经历的故事。

我的房子非常干净，最近刚刚装修过。所有新家具将在学生入住前准备好。

我的家规很简单：
***出于健康考虑，不养宠物，不吸烟，不吸毒（零容忍）。
*** 不欢迎过夜客人。如果提前通知，白天可以带朋友来访。不可转让门钥匙。
*** 房间和家具保持干净、不损坏
*** 尊重、友善、体贴

我很期待认识新同学们 :)

辛迪
