Antonio Prado Kernot-Turner

Hello,

I am a graduate at the University of Chichester, studying Sport and Psychology. I am currently undergoing a masters at Sheffield Hallam University studying child, adolescent and family mental health. I am 26 years old. I am mature and sensible and looking to increase my experience in the employment world. I have developed a variety of skills like working within different sized teams, dealing with different types of customers and being able to be confident in my job role. I have a current CRB showing I am trustworthy and have never been in trouble. I am enthusiastic and loyal and enjoy working with people. ​​​I​ ​give​ ​my​ ​all​ ​in​ ​everything​ ​I​ ​do​ ​and​ ​gain​ ​satisfaction​ ​in​ ​pleasing​ ​others. 
 

My​ ​interests​ ​include​ ​interacting​ ​with​ ​people​ ​and​ ​socialising. ​I​ ​have always enjoyed​ ​sport​ ​of​ ​all​ ​kinds, playing in both football​ ​teams​, a hockey team ​and​ ​also​ ​in​ ​a​ ​baseball​ ​team.​​​ ​Although​ ​I​ ​like​ ​to​ ​practice​ ​sport​ ​alone​ ​on​ ​occasions​ ​I do​ ​work​ ​exceptionally​ ​well​ ​in​ ​a​ ​team​ ​and​ ​enjoy​ ​the​ ​company​ ​of​ ​others. I believe every job has a team environment and the importance of communicating and providing positive team cohesion is vital. I enjoy helping people to the best of my ability, becoming school councillor in both primary and secondary school helped me to do this. I have always been fascinated in psychology, wanting to provide help to those of early ages to allow them to learn routines and techniques that will help them progress at an early stage.
