I want to become a support worker for several reasons. Firstly, I believe it would be an amazing opportunity to help the community. I have always been passionate about helping the community and doing what I can to help others. Secondly, I have always enjoyed working with people. I make friends easily and am enthusiastic about being connected with the community. I have vast experience working with individuals of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds and have always viewed working with such individuals as an amazing experience. Finally, I enjoy connecting with people and I am a firm believer that all individual differences are what makes this world a great place, and therefore would like to be in a profession that celebrates all these differences. ^& ^&I constantly share my skills with individuals in the community. An example of this can be seen every time I work as a crossing supervisor or as a mini movers deliverer. I believe the most repeated skill I share is my communication skills as well as my people skills. On a regular basis, I use my communication skills to keep the community safe by efficiently communicating the dangers that are around them whilst crossing the road. For example, asking the individuals which are using the crossing to patiently wait whilst the traffic conditions improve and the crossing becomes safe for both myself and the individual to use. Moreover, I use my communication skills to help children understand the daily activities of the mini mover's program, and adjust my communication skills accordingly to suit individual differences. For example, I would have to identify individual differences within the group of children and adjust my approach to how I deliver the activities and adjust my communication methods to ensure all individuals are able to participate. I constantly share my people skills with the community by being friendly, open-minded and empathetic with all individuals I meet to create a safe and honest environment whilst they are conversing with me. ^&
