I would make a great social carer as I am a very social person and love helping people! For most of my life I have had an interest in sharing my passions with other people, and love to learn about what makes other people happy as well. As I am currently studying a bachelor of psychological science, I would love to gain some more hands on experience with working with individuals from a variety of backgrounds, and learning more everyday. I believe that I am empathetic, kind and an active listener, qualities that I think are highly important for a job such as a social career. I also am extremely passionate about doing this job and working with people who need a helping hand, which will only make me all the more dedicated to the work. I don’t necessarily see being a social carer as a job, but more of a lifestyle. ^& ^&I believe that one of my skills/hobbies is making people feel as though I am listening to them, as well as focusing on self-care. As a social carer, I feel as though I would be able to share these skills with somebody in the community by helping them to realise the importance of both. By showing somebody that you are listening to what they’re saying, regardless of if you can understand or relate, can make a large difference in their life. Simply paying attention to them when they speak, asking questions related to the topic and words of encouragement are all essential in showing somebody that you are listening, which are all skills I believe can be easily taught to everyone (as long as they are willing to learn). Self-care is also highly essential in everybody’s life to keep a clear mind, and is a priority that I try to help everybody to understand. ^&
