Sophie, au pair - IV2 Inverness

Au pairing in Italy-This was by far the most rewarding experience, being able to assist children in their learning of a new language and to experience the most wonderful cities and culture. I was able to adapt quite quickly to this completely new environment. This job required me to constantly be energetic and enthusiastic in order for the children to stay engaged in the various activities we did. This massively improved my communication skills as often translating from Italian to English was difficult. This position also allowed me to improve my Italian significantly. I also have experience working in a local nursery i thoroughly enjoyed working with various different age group.
