Meet Monica

Monica has excelled on our Digital Skills programme, impressing her tutors not just with her grasp of technology, but also with her leadership and peer mentoring. She regularly supports her classmates, explaining tasks enthusiastically and clearly. 

Monica successfully completed an independent research project on a giant panda, using Google to source information online and creating a well-formatted document in Google Docs with headings and photos. 

As well as digital skills, Monica has been learning about money and personal finance. She can now tell the difference between savings and current accounts and knows how to make shopping lists with itemised pricing. She’s also explored shipping costs and extra charges when buying things online. 

When asked what she enjoys most, Monica said, ‘I like helping people in class. I like searching for information.’ She also told us, 'Share has helped me a lot to feel confident.' One day, she hopes to volunteer for an animal charity helping cats.
