Case Studies
I have been in work experience programme at TESYouth for 3 weeks and I have really enjoyed my time here. I have learnt a lot of new skills and also developed many existing skills. I have realised that I have grown more in confidence and have learnt to become more independent. I strongly believe it will open up many doors for me in the future. In...
What I most liked about working with TESYouth was that I could gain confidence and realise that I am a capable individual in challenging myself and sometimes working out of the comfort zone. Most of all, TESYouth was a place that gave me a positive insight of working in an office, friendly people and would definitely recommend it to young individuals who have the potential, but...
By participating in TESYouth’s work experience programme most definitely saw my confidence flourish, my skills develop and my long-term career goals emerge. I was allowed to utilize my pre-existing skills in social media, writing and creativity, making me feel competent and useful to the organization. Simultaneously I was assisted in constructively working through my professional drawbacks, which mainly surrounded mathematical and public speaking tasks. The work...
I like the idea behind TESYouth because it provides hands-on workshops for young adults. The program is helping me to build up my confidence and improve my communication skills. I really enjoy working with other participants on various tasks and projects. I love the fact that we help, support and learn from each other. I would recommend young people (18-24 year olds) to apply for TESYouth...
Throughout my placement, I came to realise that interns at TESYouth are treated differently to those elsewhere. Instead of being given menial tasks with limited responsibility, I was made to feel important to the organisation, being given real assignments related to my personal skills. My time with TESYouth turned out to be one of the most important experiences of my life, kick-starting both my personal and...
Working for TESYouth was quite an interesting experience for me. I was confronted with tasks that I never expected to do while on internship. When you work at TESYouth you constantly have to deal with tasks that you have no idea of and which put you out of your own comfort zone. This is something that sounds daunting in the beginning but you eventually realise...
It my work experience in TESYouth I had the chance to learn something new far away from home. I was faced with tasks that put me out of my comfort zone and I thought I would never do them in a short period. At the end of work experience I became more open and self-confident. It helped me to improve my English. I found the idea behind...

You are also given a lot of responsibility are given a choice as to how you want to go about your tasks.

My experience of the work experience programme was good. I’m glad I got a lot of relevant work experience for my career goal and I think I can definitely use it in the future. I found it a little challenging when I had a time limit as well as a goal which seemed to take very long to reach so the workload versus the time limit...
I found the work experience to be beneficial to me as I got to work on several projects on a professional environment. For the most part I enjoyed working on the projects. I am perusing a career in graphics and web design. Overall I believe the experience will be beneficial and I would recommend it to others....
During the work experience, I learnt so much on the areas I was lacking in. For example planning day to day activities and how to connect with people. I did find some of the task hard at first but with more help and advice I enjoyed the experience. I would recommend this to my friends and family....
The work experience in sales with TESYouth has been a huge learning curve for me. It’s shown me a lot of things and has taught me a lot about myself and what I lack in myself.
