Ashley
Ashley is the person behind the scenes. She does all my translating for me as well as keeps up with my schedule and social media posts in China. She also runs errands and half a dozen things that most admins wouldn't. We are a team.
She is learning to be the best educator she can along the way. Since teaching is her chosen occupation and she has no intention of leaving China for the world beyond, she will definitely be an asset to the education of Chinese children she serves and will serve in the future.
I'm going to jump in here and add that Ashley is most precious person I've ever hired. Did you know that what she continues to help me with, she doesn't accept a fee for? That's right, she continues to be my brains in China with scheduleing and messageing and printing and all that and doesn't ask me for anything in return because she knows that I would give it to her first and do without for myself and she simply doesn't allow me to do that when she can make it by on her own. I love her dearly and can honestly say, she is the heart that runs the show, I'm just following her lead. Without her, I would have not kept going with this vision after a few of the hard knocks, but we are still here and you can thank Ashley for that!!
