1. PROFILE

     In these paragraphs I explain why I am interested in being part of your company and the details that make me a perfect candidate for your company.

    Since childhood I have been interested in many aspects related to the world of Physical Activity and Sport, so in order to go in depth in the learning I decided to do the studies of the Degree in “Sport Science and Physical Activity” and of my Master’s Degree in “Physical Activity and Health” to develop my future career in this field. I like helping people to improve their health and quality of life through physical exercise in a healthy way and also to improve the performance of their physical abilities.

    I learnt the demands of users and the importance of regular physical exercise for health and for the quality of people’s life during my studies and subsequent practices, but also by caring for the management of sports centers and performance of athletes in different sports. In these areas I am used to developing my professional role successfully.

   I like having responsibilities when I am working and having the opportunity to make decisions. I think this situation brings out the best of me and I take it as a challenge to which I dedicate all my effort. Moreover, I like teamwork and creating a good working environment day by day, in order to get a more rewarding and productive atmosphere. I am a proactive person, since I am always reviewing articles and books on topics of my interest, related to my professional field.I possess excellent communication skills gained through my experience as an instructor in different areas of health and fitness and extracurricular sports teacher. I love working as part of a team and I also work on my own to get new goals.

    Outside my job, I am an outgoing person, I adapt quickly and with no difficulty to new places and I love meeting new people. During my free time, I like investing my time in doing productive things, such as cultural activities, sports, travelling or meeting my close people.
 

Thank you for the consideration of my application. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any further information.
