Description

Hello! I’d like to address an issue on Workaway feedback. I have one neutral review from a language school in Italy. It was a paid role that did not pay the agreed wages so I chose to leave after working there for the three month contract. I am happy to share professional references with anyone looking to verify that I am a good worker :-)

I love to discover different cultures and listen to people’s stories. I always want to learn about the food of places and how to cook it. I think that sharing happiness and positivity is a beautiful way to live and I want to meet more interesting people on my life journey.

More details about my language interests
I am fluent in English. I have been learning French for a few years. I did a language exchange when I was in school. I work on my French every day on a phone app and used to go to a private tutor once a week for conversation when I was in Ireland. I am interested in learning any language. I tried to learn Russian and Arabic on my phone. I found the alphabets challenging.I would love to have some Spanish and Italian. I was living in Italy between August 22 and January 23 where I learned some Italian and was teaching English in a school so I am experienced in teaching English.

More details about your skills

After graduating from university, I worked in a multinational for 8 and a half years . My work ethic is of an excellent standard. I am very familiar with fast paced learning environments and the need for professional standards to be met. I have experience of individual working, group work, computer work etc. In my personal life, I love yoga, fitness and food. I am a 230 hour trained yoga teacher. I have taken to cooking with a passion since Feb 2020. I try to cook something new and exciting every day and constantly want to improve and learn more. I have tried growing my own food since Feb 21. I can speak French to an intermediate level and would love to learn more about other languages.

What else ...

I competed in boxing for three years which was wonderful for my physical and mental health. I loved playing cards with my grandmother when she was alive. I can play the musical keyboard and an Irish instrument called the tin whistle. I love music. I used to paint miniature models when I was younger. As my love for cooking has grown, I have a desire to learn more about how to grow food. I would like to learn more about meditation.
