Teos, Turkey Over the past summer, I worked as a watersports instructor at a beach resort in turkey. Where I was given the responsibility of managing the beach whenever my supervisor was not present. As one of the more experienced instructors I predominantly taught the advanced courses offered. I also greatly enjoyed imparting my experience on to the other instructors helping to develop and improve their teaching along with the knowledge that I could learn from working with other people in a new centre.
