CV Extract 16 Age UK Charity Volunteer
I assisted elderly people in improving their computer skills. I helped multiple people and worked in a team with other students and teachers. Some of the things I taught were how to turn on a computer, log on, and also tried to boost their confidence when working with PC’s. This lesson consisted weekly for an hour each time and I thoroughly enjoyed working with all of the members of Age UK. This role has helped build my people skills with older people rather than the usual ages I am used to. This also helped my confidence and verbal interactions.
