Summary
As an A level student with experience as a teaching assistant and a chess coach, I am a dedicated and reliable individual with a passion for helping others to learn. I possess strong communication and interpersonal skills, as well as a proven ability to work collaboratively in a team setting. Through my work as a teaching assistant, I have developed excellent adaptability skills as individuals I came across required different support, so I needed to adapt to meet their needs. I am eager to continue to building my skills and experience and to contribute to a dynamic environment.
