Tangata o AhaSlides | Te Maamaa ki a Lawrence Haywood

"I mua i te AhaSlides, he kaiako ESL ahau i Vietnam; E toru pea nga tau e whakaako ana ahau engari i whakatau kua rite ahau mo tetahi huringa.

Mai i te noho mokemoke ki te kaiako ESL, katahi ano ko te Kaiwhakahaere Ihirangi, he mea whakamere te ara mahi a Lawrence. Kua noho ia ki Ingarangi, Ahitereiria me Aotearoa mo te nuinga o tona oranga pakeke, me te penapena moni ki te huri haere i Uropi me Ahia i mua i tana noho ki Vietnam.

Ahakoa i mahi ia i mua hei kaituhi mo te whakahaere SaaS, ko te huri ki te mahi tuhi tuhinga mo te wa-katoa ehara i te waahanga o te mahere mahi a Lawrence. 

I te tau 2020, i Itari ia na te raka mate mate, a ka ako ia mo AhaSlides ma Facebook. I tono ia mo te mahi, ka timata tana mahi i tawhiti, katahi ka neke ki Hanoi ki te whakauru atu ki te roopu i te tari.

I pai ahau he tiimata me te roopu iti, a i taua wa, kei te mahi nga mema katoa i nga mea katoa, kaua ko te mahi kotahi. I mahi ahau i runga i nga tini mea rereke kaore au i whakamatau i mua.

I te wa e tipu haere ana te kapa, ka whakaaro a Lawrence ki te mahi tonu me te roopu kanorau o nga mema o te roopu me te ako mai i a raatau ano mo te ahurea, te kai me te oranga.

Ka pai! Kei te pirangi koe ki te mohio ki nga mea whakamere e pa ana ki a maatau Kaitohu Ihirangi, tika? Tenei ka haere…

I patai atu matou he aha nga pukenga kei a ia i waho o te mahi, ka kii ia, “Kaore au i te tino pukenga i waho o te mahi, engari kei te pirangi au ki te whakaaro he tino pai au ki te kore whakaaro mo tetahi mea. He pai ki ahau te hīkoi i tawhiti me te whakaweto noa i taku roro mo nga wiki i ia wa. 

Ae! Ka whakaae matou. He tino pukenga nui tera! 😂

He pai hoki a Lawrence ki te haere, ki te whutupaoro, ki te patu pahū, ki te whakaahua, ki te hīkoi, ki te tuhi me te “maataki nui rawa atu i a YouTube”. (Kei te whakaaro matou, ka whiwhi tatou i tetahi hongere haerenga mai i a ia i tetahi wa? 🤔)

E rua nga patai i patai atu matou ki a ia, a koinei tana korero.

1. He aha te ahua o to mokai?  He maha rawa pea hei whakahua, kia pono! Kei te mahi au ki te pai ake, no reira ka mau tonu ahau ki tetahi - ko nga tangata e peia ana ma nga rama whero i nga huarahi whakawhiti me te whakaroa i te tini o nga tangata na te mea kei te pirangi ratou ki te whakaora i te 20 hēkona mai i to raatau haerenga. Ka tino tupu tera i Vietnam.
2. Makau me etahi atu:
   1. He aha to pukapuka tino pai? – Te hinu kakara na Patrick Süskind
   2. Ko wai to kuru rongonui? – Stephanie Beatriz 
   3. Ko tēhea te kiriata tino pai ki a koe? – City of God (2002)
   4. Ko wai to kaiwaiata tino pai?– Ka huri tonu tenei, engari i tenei wa, ko Snarky Puppy (ko ta ratou kaiwhakatangi pahū, a Larnell Lewis, he tino whakahihiri moku)
   5. He aha to kai whakamarie? – He kai kei Vietnam ko te phở chiên phồng – he parai, he kihu tapawha kua whakamakuku ki te mīti me te kirikiri – he kai whakamarie. 
3. Ka aha koe mena kaore koe i te Kaitohu Ihirangi? Ka noho tonu ahau hei kaiako ESL mena kaore au i te whai kiko, engari kei te pirangi au ki te mahi puoro mo te roopu fusion funk, he YouTuber wa-katoa ranei me te hongere haerenga.
4. He aha koe ka whakaingoa i to haurongo mena ka tuhia e koe tetahi? Tena pea tetahi mea ahua ahua atu. He tino harikoa ahau, he manawa whakahīhī hoki kua tata ki te tekau tau te noho ki tāwāhi, ā, he mea e hiahia ana ahau kia mau tonu mō te roanga ake o taku oranga.
5. Mena ka whai mana nui koe, he aha tena? Ko te tikanga he haerenga taima - ka pai ahau ki te ora i oku tau 20 mo nga wa katoa. Tera pea ka waiho ahau hei toa tino hikaka, ahakoa!
