Hi there! My name is Rosanna, I'm a CELTA qualified TEFL teacher (for teenagers and adults) and a graduate of English Literature with Creative Writing. Recently I was lucky enough to visit a friend in Norway and volunteer on her family's sheep farm, helping shepherd on the mountains. The beauty of the fjords and the lovely, welcoming families who I stayed with opened my eyes to the wonders to be found in other countries, and inspired me to travel as much as I possibly can. I have also spent 3 months volunteering in a community in Egypt, making crafts, helping in the kitchens and farm, and learning a little Arabic! My desire to travel has also inspired me with a deep desire to learn different languages, as I want to be able to communicate with people all over the globe, and immerse myself in different cultures.
I have previously used Workaway to volunteer in Italy - volunteering for one week with a family, gardening and helping make crafts, and another week with a lovely woman in her remote country house, helping and learning a little about permaculture. Both of these experiences were extremely positive and I can't wait to experience more!
As an English language teacher, I believe being a learner of other languages will help me to one day become a better teacher. I am happy to teach lessons and help with language practice but i'm equally happy to do other tasks. I love to learn new things!
I am a cheerful, easy-going, hard-working team player, in or out of doors. Although I only have some, not a lot of experience in farming or gardening, I am physically healthy and more than willing to learn.
