Maryam Sajid presented on her work experience and the skills she has gained. She volunteered as a reading assistant at a primary school where she helped children select books and developed communication, organization, and professionalism. As a teacher at a learning center, she further improved her listening, planning, and adapting skills based on student feedback. Through volunteering with NCS, she enhanced her teamwork, communication, leadership, decision making, and reliability. Maryam also took a first aid course. More recently, she has worked as a paid social media content creator, developing her creativity, technical, and time management abilities. She believes these skills will help her work well with others in future careers.
