Summary
I am a friendly, conscientious and organised person with the ability to communicate effectively with children and adults. I have extensive experience working with children through my work as a football coach at Gôl, volunteering with the Urdd, and my work as a teaching assistant and cover supervisor. I have also gained experience in working within a team in my two years of medical school. I am patient, an effective team worker, and calm under pressure.
