Description

Hello! My name is Angela, and I'm thrilled at the chance to meet new people and experience another culture through Workaway. I currently work as a paramedic, a job I love because it allows me to help people and be part of my community in a meaningful way. I was recently accepted into medical school in the U.S., and I'll be starting in August. Before diving into my studies, I’m looking forward to traveling and immersing myself in a Spanish-speaking environment to improve my language skills. I studied Spanish in school, so I’d describe myself as intermediate, and I’m excited to become more fluent.

I’m someone who truly enjoys learning, whether it’s academics, language, or life skills. I also love skiing, running, and spending time with my family—my three siblings and many cousins are very close.

As a native English speaker, I would be delighted to offer English language lessons and help improve your skills in speaking, reading, or writing. In addition, I am eager to learn Spanish, as I hope to become fluent in the language to better communicate with Spanish-speaking patients in my future medical career.

More details about your skills

I bring a diverse range of skills and experience that make me well-suited for caregiving, tutoring, and general household assistance. Over the past four years, I have trained and worked as a paramedic, which has given me advanced knowledge and hands-on experience in providing care to patients of all ages in emergency situations. This background has helped me develop strong communication, problem-solving, and first-aid skills, as well as the ability to stay calm and composed under pressure.

Additionally, I have experience as a tutor and course instructor. I’ve worked with a wide range of students, helping them grasp difficult concepts, particularly in the fields of science, as I have dedicated much of my time to studying for medical school.

In terms of household skills, I am more than capable of performing a range of tasks such as cooking basic meals, doing laundry, and keeping the house tidy. I have also acted as a babysitter from the time I was in high school for neighbors, cousins and my younger siblings.

What else ...

I am an Italian citizen with family in Italy, and I have had the opportunity to visit Spain once. I’m genuinely excited to deepen my understanding of Spanish culture and immerse myself further in its rich history and traditions, as my grandfather was from Spain
