Alex Bentwood
London
Summary
Enthusiastic and motivated student with experience in both technology and working with children. I have a strong interest in coding and enjoy learning new technical skills. Additionaly, my hands-on experience working with children has helped me gain confidence speaking to large groups, as well as helping me develop my ability communicate effectively. I’m organised, confident, and able to adapt quickly. Whether I'm working independently or as part of a team I am keen to gain as much expirience as possible across a variety of fields.
