Summary

Every time I have been faced with a task, whether it be school or work experience, I always try learn as fast as I can putting my best effort into any task. I always try put myself into uncomfortable situations so I can learn more and become more experienced. It is a lot of responsibility being a lifeguard as peoples safety depends on me doing my job safely and correct, I feel I am able to take on this responsibility as I always put my best foot forward and able to adapt quick with changes. I am able to remain calm under pressure meaning in a case of an emergency I will act accordingly, following the right procedures for the scenario. On my lifeguarding course I was able to pick up quick on the different type of rescues and situations that may occur when on lifeguarding but also how to prevent them from happening, which is why with good obviation skills and effective communication it will greatly improve the public safety on pool side and in the pool.
