Nicola P.

My name is Nicki. I'm a stay at home mum with two young children. I'd like to do some extra work at home only. I haven't had any professional experience in this capacity yet, but I have an excellent grasp of English as well as brilliant attention to detail. I am determined and hardworking and always put 100% into everything I do, from studying my degree to helping organise events for parent council. I have a modern computer running Windows 10. I will be happy to do proofreading, data entry and transcription. I have a very good grasp of the English language, writing academically at university level, and I'm very good at proofreading due to my flair for attention to detail. I am currently studying for a BA Hons in Arts and Humanities. I have completed and passed an English language module and a broad arts and humanities module too. I'm in the process of completing a third module on English literature. I currently have my own blog where I review books. This is a new venture for me and I'm so excited about it. I have also started offering myself as a beta reader to authors and giving feedback on plot, readability and flow of writing, as well as leaving a review for them. I worked as an administrative assistant, and teaching assistant, as well as a personal assistant in a very fast paced and high pressure environment. I held my job for eight years before I became pregnant and decided to stay at home. I then became employed as a Support for learning assistant when my first son was two years old. I worked in that position in a high school until October 2021, when the I was finding it difficult to continue commuting to work while I have a 6 year old going to school, and now have a son who is 2.5 years old. My previous administrative role required me to work on company accounts, end of year, and personal accounts too. I prepared newsletters, posters, created logos and websites. I also helped manage another two businesses my boss had. I am very adaptable and can work well under pressure. I have very good problem solving skills, and lots of determination to get problems solved. I also hold an SVQ in Business Administration and helped mentor teens to get theirs.
