My Summary
About Me
Hi! My name is Ava , and I am 22 years old. I am from the United States of America, and have ventured to Oxford to study and receive my Master's in Social Work at Oxford Brookes University. Throughout growing up, I have always loved playing house and imagining being able to have my own kids one day. While that is still the plan, right now I get to help other families by watching and being a part of their kids' lives, which is why I am on this site.
I have always had a love of serving and being a part of the community, and I have found that I work best when I can help the youth of our world. I have worked in tutoring and mentorship jobs, as well as summer camp and day camps, for the past 5 years of my life. I enjoy being able to help children discover and learn about the world, and help shape how they feel seen, heard, and loved. In the future, I plan on using my position to work with children who might need the most support and provide them with things that will make the most out of their lives and childhood.
Last summer I had the opportunity to study abroad and work in a primary school in Cape Town, South Africa. I worked with students on lessons, homework questions, reading, and writing. This experience taught me a lot about how important it is to branch out and be able to work with different cultures and explore how other places do things differently. I loved being able to support the children with making connections, but also with their reading and writing, as I could see that me being there was helpful for them through the scores on assignments.
