Summary
Proving to be a reliable and dedicated leader as a tutor and coach in my High School, I have consistently enhanced student's GPA and strengthened the volleyball team by teaching new recruit's to flourish and reach their full potential. My volunteer work showcases strong work ethic and unparalleled social skills, as I meticulously plan all my volunteer projects for months and then build meaningful relationships on the trips with diverse, international people across the world. I have also learned the art of patience, as I communicate and build relationships with people that speak different languages and have no understanding of English.
