I started life as an archaeologist before retraining in IT and have wide experience of work in the voluntary / not for profit and continuing education sectors in Scotland where I am usually based. This has included database design, hardware support, software support, website design and tuition.
From 2009 - 2010 I was in Nairobi, Kenya as Assistive Technology Tutor with the Kenyan Society for the Blind. Then came two years in Ethiopia, working with the Addis Ababa HIV / AIDS Prevention and Control Office and the Ethiopian Midwives Association. My most recent stint abroad was another two years in Papua New Guinea as Provincial Capacity Building ICT Advisor on a United Nations Development Program / Ministry of Finance project. For now I am back in Scotland and a part time Open University tutor.

Good tips for writing Kevin, I would add by all means proof read your own work as you go along but always get a final proof reading by someone else. This has definitely improved my writing (including the work of Jen and the team at opensource.com on my articles).
If you need a break from techie reading, or .... well reading, try Librivox (https://librivox.org/). Large selection of out of copyright books read by volunteers, audio books free to download.
