Giusy, after-school childcare in Rawtenstall BB4

I would say I'm a very ambitious person, I indeed always have had very high expectations and tried my best to achieve these. I'm also very dynamic and hardworking, furthermore I acknowledge that I am consistently growing in confidence and working ability -which I would say is as a result of my fast learning abilities. I believe in teamwork and communication as this are essential elements in a working environment. I usually try to make the most out of my spare time, reason why I engage in different hobbies such as reading -I really enjoy classical novels, for instance Jane Eyre, or learning languages such as Korean and Japanese -the latter now a major component of my undergraduate degree at Durham University.
I find delight in drawing despite the fact I do not possess the most skilled hands, however I also deeply find pleasure in playing the piano. In fact, I retain a deep appreciation for pianist/composers such as Yiruma (River Flows in You) and the outstanding Ludovico Einaudi (I giorni and Nuvole Bianche) I do acknowledge the fact that perhaps compared to others my personal interests may not be as intriguing however I believe this is what distinguishes me. Finally, adding to the description of my persona. I'd consider my self to be a very candid, mature, humble and reliable person who enjoys working hard and being able to improve their skills.

In 2013 I worked in a summer camp in Italy as a Child Entertainment with children aged between 6 and 14. I had several responsibilities such as coordinating and planning activities, explaining rules and safety measures and implementing these rules and safety measures. I also had to certify that the rules for each different planned activity and game were explained and that within each team created vital elements such as teamwork and individual participation were present. Furthermore, one of my main duties was to monitor individual development of individual participants and to build a rapport with the children by interaction while simultaneously encouraging and motivating them. I really enjoyed the position, the teamwork and also doing my best in keeping a nice and relaxed atmosphere with everyone. I also deeply appreciate other skills gained from such an experience such as the excellent observation skills, the development of good communication and interpersonal skills, excellent leadership skills, teamwork and conflict resolution and the acquisition of good decision-making and stress management skills. Yet, the main working skills I was able to develop further and demonstrate in this experience were primarily my high levels of reliability, honesty and integrity.
