Things have been difficult but I'm focused on moving forward now and looking at the future. I'd really love to find stable work so I can start building a stable and happy life for myself and my son.
Long term I'd love to be a Teaching Assistant. Back home I always tried to help children who were struggling with school with homework and tried to give them structure. When my son had speech difficulties and started seeing a speech therapist I also tried to give him structure and even had parents asking me for advice! These experiences have made me realise I'd love to work in a school.
Meanwhile, I am hoping to get back into care work. I have always loved working with the elderly and I feel like I learn a lot from them. It feels really good to give back. Besides work and being a parent, I like doing pencil drawings, like fruits or scenery. I've been drawing since I was small, I'm still not the best at it but I find it really relaxing.
I'm very grateful to Beam for the support on my journey, as a person I always want to resolve it myself, getting help is difficult for me but it is nice to know there are people out there who want to help.
