Description of character
I'm a very friendly and outgoing girl. My family and friends are very important to me and I try to be in contact with them, even if I live far from home. I'm used to do everything at home by myself, since I live alone since I was 18.
Childcare experiences
I babysitted my two little cousins and I've worked as a teacher for children and teenagers.
School / Academic qualifications
- Bachiller Humanidades
- Studying Translation and Interprating (Spanish- French-German).
- 2 months studying in the UK, 1 month in Canada, 1 month in France and 1 year in Belgium.
Childcare / First-Aid qualifications
- I've made elective subjects into teaching and process learning psycology.
Special talents
I play guitar (but I learn by myself), dance/choreography, sing, I love creating stories and I can invent my own games and rol games for children.
How I spend my leisure time
I like going out for a walk with my friends, making dinners or lunchs (I like cooking), listening to music, playing guitar, singing, dancing, organising activities with my friends such as a musical, etc.
Lived away from home
I study in Barcelona that's 1100km away from home. I've lived in Belgium for a year. And since I was 16, I've been spending the summers in another country to learn the language and cultures living with families.
Why I want to be an Au Pair
I want to gain more experience with children in order to become a good teacher, also I need to improve my language skills and knowing deeply new cultures.
Comments
I like organising outdoors activities, so the children can learn to get orientiation and they can be active and also role games to help developing their imagination, that now a days is not worked out in schools.
