Mel had an interview yesterday with EF Language School (a prestigious international language school) and...she got the Job! Finally!!! She will start in 3 weeks and it will run for a couple of months through summer. Her job will be an Activity Leader, this means going out with the students and keeping them busy and safe. Mel will be running different activities including: volleyball on the beach, day trips to London, Oxford, Cambridge and surroundings.. She will have to learn different games and the EF dance at the EF disco...all good fun!!! It will give her a lot of experience and confidence in dealing with youngsters.
In the meantime, she is helping out as a volunteer in her favourite Nature Reserve called Brownsea island. They have been clearing Rhododendron, an invasive plant that kills all the other surrounding plants on the ground. It was a hard work but very rewarding, according to her. She got up at 7h30am, cycled for 40 mins along the beach and then caught a little ferry to the island where she met a few interesting people and also learnt a bit more about the way they manage and conserve this natural reserve. It was very instructive for her, she said.
On Sunday she will also be volunteering on another project, where again she has to get the bike and catch a ferry, but this time it will be in celebration of World Oceans Day. She will help out in different activities such as an underwater film show, egg hunting and many more, all having to do with marine conservation.

I am really happy for her because now she will be doing something she likes to do and not only to be working for the money. I remember when she was a teen and she used to get catalogues from EF Language School so she could study English abroad. Now she will be working for them. Good luck Mel! Hope this new job leads to another longer lasting career.
Everyday is a mission, each day a plan and sometimes you just have to follow your heart.

ReplyDeleteGood luck Mel. I am sure you will be enjoying your new job. But be careful with those youngsters. They can be crazy at times so watch out and do not thrust anybody for now.
