Experienced bookkeeper with over 10 years experience, working in Italy with small to medium size companies with several established accounting bureaus.
I have an additional Diploma in "Community Management" which means I have a sound understanding of psychology, pedagogy and sociology.
Trained Community Managers are often well suited to certain structures e.g. nurseries, primary schools, summer stays, boarding schools, retirement and care homes.
I am organised, trustworthy, disciplined and I always work to a timely and efficient manner.
I am well travelled and enjoy applying my skills in a wide variety of environments.
Helped to create a safe and nurturing haven where children could blossom. I organised educational activities for handicapped and underprivileged children, helped with homework, and provided a compassionate listening ear for their hopes and fears, ensuring the children felt heard and valued.
In addition, I taught Italian to new immigrants helping them to feel welcome and part of our community.
I helped out in a number of different capacities:
I supported residents during meal times, served them refreshments, carried out bingo sessions and aided the arts and crafts session. Helping to keep residents stimulated was a key aspect of the voluntary role, which I did both through the activities themselves and by providing company and companionship. Talking and reading with residents was essential, particularly for those who didn’t receive many visitors.
