Descripción

- Currently, I own a minibus and am spending time to convert this into a living space. I am always pushing myself to learn new things so I will gain skills in woodwork, electricity, interior design.

-At the end of September I begin my second year as a mature student studying at Aberystwyth University; Psychology and Education; Joint Honors.

- I also am working as a waitress in various hotels and restaurants, such as five star hotel 'Chewton Glen' with an agency, part time

- I have a level 2 Certificate in British Sign Language (Not American)

- I am trying to learn to touch type at the moment

-I have done 6 workaways before, 3 in Germany, 2 in Belgium and 1 in France.

- Previously, I worked for 3 1/2 years in a mainstream school in the city of Southampton for children aged between 7 - 11

- My role was largely with a SEN (Special Education needs) student on a 1 -1 basis

- I have been on many school trips with children including residential trips to outdoor places, where we have learnt about nature and teamwork. I have normally had to take responsibility for a group of children on these trips

- I ran an after school club called 'Creative Club' which is an art based club

- I want to learn about other styles of education and what else is out there for educating children. I believe that children's education should be a journey of love and interest rather than 'box-ticking' and should be motivational for them

- I am quite a calm individual, very friendly and like to be useful

- I ride my bike lots to work and back and like to keep healthy

-I have been growing vegetables since I was 9 or 10 years old, I've grown carrots, parsnips, swede, peas, spinach, sweetcorn, strawberries...

-I previously volunteered with a elderly care charity for about a year and a half and I was a 'befriender' where I visited a lonely elderly gentleman once a week to provide companionship

I hope all of this gives you a positive impression of me as I feel I am a positive person and want to be engaged with projects and people. I care for people and the world as a whole.
