Description

Hi there I'm Matt.

I am a motivated and enthusiastic 23 year old from the United Kingdom.

I really enjoy spending time in the outdoors and taking on new challenges. I particularly enjoy sharing these moments with other people.

Learning new things is something that I appreciate and to learn in a new culture is something that is an exciting prospect for me.

This year following graduating University. I have taken on an adventure and I have been working as an ALT (Assistant Language Teacher) in Miyazaki prefecture. I will be finishing my job as an ALT at the end of the Japanese school year in March. It has been an incredible experience. My next commitment is this summer I am returning to the United States to help run a summer camp for adults with learning and developmental disabilities. It is a place that I hold very close to my heart.

However, between my teaching role and starting in the United States, I would like to take on a new challenge and adventure in two months.

I used workaway in 2021 Sweden and it was an incredible experience. I look forward to working hard and having another great experience in Japan.

I hope that you are able to catch a glimpse of my enthusiasm through this profile and if you have any questions please get in contact.
