  • Description

    Hello! I am 20 years old, born and raised in England and currently on the summer break between 1st and 2nd year of university. I am very social, fully bar trained, love spending time with kids and being out in nature. Nothing makes me happier than being able to meet new people, expand my awareness of other cultures and make friends worldwide. I am studying biology and I love hiking, diving; generally getting stuck into active work and helping out with whatever is needed. In essence, I hope to gain new experiences through volunteering and bring positivity and enthusiasm to wherever I volunteer.

    More details about my language interests
    I love the idea of being able to speak other languages, it is something that I have always wanted to achieve and so any help in improving my foreign language skills would be amazing! I am also comfortable teaching English as I am fortunate enough to have had an excellent education and so have the language understanding to teach it to others.

  • More details about your skills

    I sat my A levels last May and achieved 3 A*s in maths, biology and geography - I plan to study biology in University of Bristol in September.
    I spent 5 weeks diving in Koh Tao in February, where I volunteered in a conservation diving course. I have my advanced scuba and knowledge of reef preservation and artificial construction, welding, invertebrate/fish/coral taxonomy and health, coral predator extraction and underwater data collection.
    I was a babysitter for multiple families back in my village in Manchester so I am very comfortable with looking after children, connecting with them and making sure they feel content, safe and cared for. I also volunteered at my local primary school to look after the pupils after school, running clubs and games.
    I play a lot of sport, mainly netball and lacrosse back in England but I am open to trying any activity.

    I love to play interactive games such as cards, uno, the mind, articulate etc ( although I can get competitive ! )
    I enjoy being creative and story writing/telling.
    I love music, I listen to a wide variety of genres but it brings me a lot of inner peace and contentment.
    Open-minded, insightful conversations about topics that will expand my cultural or societal understanding are always enjoyable to me.
