Lending a Helping Hand

LVH ART

I worked in a contemporary art gallery during the What’s up exhibition in Dover Street for LVH art.
I was instructed on how to behave in a gallery space and was thought about the meaning of the paintings and the painters, and all the information in the catalogue.

LEARNING ASSISTANT AT FULHAM PALACE

I worked with the free-lance teachers, assisted during workshops, and school sessions.

I helped the learning department manager organising activities, planning events for children, related to specific festivities or to the palace history.

I was thought how to place online and telephone orders for materials, sent emails to parents and teacher enquiring about the different programmes.

I developed and mastered my knowledge of Excel, Photoshop, and PowerPoint.

TOUR GUIDE AT SOMERSET HOUSE

The Tour guide training was done at Somerset House and I learned how to deliver effective tours, answer questions effectively, and studied historical facts about London and the Palace.

FRONT OF HOUSE AT THE MUSEUM OF BRANDS AND ADVERTISING (NOTTING HILL)

I developed my customer service skills and applied them to the museum environment.
I memorised all the information about the museums, talked to visitors, looked after the shops, sold tickets, and kept a record of the bookings.

Together with other students, I helped to organise the final exhibition for the graduate students exhibiting their final projects. I helped to edit the catalogue, writing wall labels, interviewing artists, and setting up for the exhibition.

Together with a fellow student, we researched information and historical material about the building, trained the other tour guides, delivered the tours, and organised all the logistics of the weekend.
