Personal Trainer for a Month!

Introduction
This report aims to inform students about a part-time job which I spent one month doing during the
summer. The work took place at the Arena Sports Centre and has given me invaluable work expe-
rience related to our sports degree.

Job Description
Firstly, the post involved working mornings from 08:00 - 14:00 with a personal trainer. I was re-
quired to wear sports clothes and comfortable trainers as I would be very active during these
hours. I had to teach a spinning class indoors and then take the running one outdoors on the ath-
letics track. I had to motivate the participants often and ensure they were reaching their objectives.

Learning Achievements
Secondly, I learnt a huge amount during the month. Most significantly was about diet and its impor-
tance for athletes. There were strict rules about eating fast food with our main goal being to explain
the effects of a healthy diet. Furthermore, I learnt how to prepare a balanced training plan that was
neither too stressful nor light for the athletes, something that is important when thinking about moti-
vation.

Recommendation
Finally, I would highly recommend applying for this job as the staff are extremely friendly and help-
ful. Moreover, it has opened my eyes and shown me what a future career in personal training in-
volves.

A Helpful Job

Introduction
This report aims to inform about what a social worker really does and which kind of people they
work with.

Job Description
Our work is based on helping people to introduce themselves into society. Talking to their families
and friends we can discover the key point regarding their situation and what we can do to solve it.

What I learned from it

Firstly, this job is vocational so I learned from it how to understand people’s situation, to feel what
they feel and the most important part, to understand that everybody needs a second opportunity.

Recommendation
Everybody should live this experience as it makes you feel in harmony with yourself and to under-
stand how much these people need our help.
