  • Description

    I started traveling in school due to the Erasmus program. My experiences and newfound friends bring me so much joy and help me build a new mindset. I really enjoyed going to school, but now I'm ready to make new memories, friends, and learn new skills.

    I've always had a soft spot for animals. Moreover, one of my longest hobbies is dancing. I also worked in a restaurant, as a lifeguard, a swimming instructor, babysat, and tutored.

  • More details about your skills

    I started working at a restaurant when I was fifteen (on weekends and sometimes after school) and I gained lots of experience in the fast-paced environment. I usually work seven to eleven-hour shifts so I am used to having a longer day.
    For my lifeguard and swimming instructor job, I worked with small children and introduced them to the water and helped them improve their skills due to that, I also have experience in First Aid.
    As a tutor, I mostly taught English and German, but also everything else that was needed. I think I most enjoyed tutoring; it is so rewarding to see the progress the kids made and their newfound love for the language.
    Nevertheless, I am a fast and structured learner, therefore I do things as thoroughly as I can.

  • What else ...

    Two years ago, I rediscovered my love for horseback riding. I’ve gained more experience while staying on a ranch in Canada and my biggest goal is to learn more every day.
