Summary
I am a hard-working, focused and reliable employee who is eager to learn and help others. I have demonstrated an ability to teach, coach, mentor and care for young children through the following jobs: student learning support officer, teaching swimming lessons, coaching and mentoring young hockey players as well as baby sitting. These previous employment opportunities have enabled me to enhance my leadership and communication skills with both children and their family members. I am self-motivated and highly organised and have been part of a dynamic leadership team at Engadine High School and am currently in my second year of university, studying a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy. I am also an elite athlete who is dedicated and focused and have had a very successful sporting career thus far. My ultimate goal is to be an Olympian in the sport of hockey. I have been successful in achieving many goals in sport and education and know that I would be an asset to any employer.
