Heidi: United Kingdom: Feb 18, 2019

I am a self-motivated person with a positive outlook and very tenacious in everything I do. I can demonstrate this by being committed to my leisure interests having taken ballet lessons for 12 years and attending Stagecoach, a performing arts school, for 7 years. Both of these helped to increase my confidence by performing in front of people. During my second year of university I undertook a five-week placement at Marlwood School where I was a teaching assistant in the drama department. I assisted with both lessons and after school activities such as rehearsals for the school play. I also enjoy travelling and learning about various cultures and in August 2014 I travelled to Australia on my own to visit family living there, which gave me a sense of independence.
