Sofia Monforte

Volunteering with Make a Smile Cardiff involved visiting hospitals to support and engage sick children through meaningful activities that brightened their days. This experience enhanced my empathy, communication, and teamwork as I worked closely with families, hospital staff, and volunteers to create a supportive atmosphere.

Volunteered as a church projectionist, programming and managing slides to support services by displaying hymns, readings, videos, and websites following the programme set by the reverend. Occasionally assisted with readings and helped in other areas as needed, demonstrating technical skills, adaptability, and a commitment to supporting the church community

I used to attend these Saturday school sessions when I was younger for my 11+ and early GCSE's, and then got the opportunity to teach the younger students aged 4-11 for the same thing, whether it be preparation for school interviews or their examinations.
