Personal Information
Hobbies: I have a keen interest in reading and writing literature. I was part of the reading club at my A-Levels and participated in several poetry competitions, one of which I was the winner. I was awarded ‘Student of the Week’ for a Shakespeare performance I delivered at a literature event hosted by the school.
At university level, I utilised my skill in writing to deliver 3 blogs and One podcast, some through assessments. The podcast and blog I produced achieved a first class and were retained by my lecturer as teaching material for the next year.
I am also partially engaged in training to sing opera and playing the piano.
