Throughout life I have always felt a pull towards helping others in any way that I could. This is what I consider one of my strengths, as I will always do my best to assist those around me with their needs.

Throughout my varies jobs such as waitressing or working as a reservations agent, I have learnt how to effectively communicate and help many types of people. From difficult to friendly, I am able to understand people’s needs and how to approach all situations thoughtfully. I am adaptable and able to learn on the spot.

Balancing both a full time degree and a part-time job has also given me both time management and organisational skills. I believe that these are all skills that are transferable and adaptable towards the role of teaching.

The use of language is close to my heart as I personally use my words to write songs that tell stories. My university degree focused on how words and phrases can have an impact on those around us, and how to use that to your advantage. This is why I believe I will be able to engage students in their discovery of a language different to their native.
