To celebrate 10 years of the English with Kirsty podcast, I’m creating a 10-part series to celebrate 10 different forms that learning can take.The final part of the series is about learning through Volunteering. I had a number of people who wanted to be involved, so in the end I decided to split this into three conversations. The third and final part is with Colette Myler, whom I met back in 2021 when we were attending some of the same international networking events together.What did we talk about?I really wanted to show some of the different ways in which people can be volunteers, so I spoke with people doing very different roles. We talked about:Colette’s story – why she decided to volunteer and which organisations she chose.The skills and knowledge that Colette brings to her volunteering roles and some of the new skills that she’s gained over the yearsSome of the things that Colette has learned through her volunteering experiences – as well as some of the people whom she’s met along the way.How volunteering and being part of the community are part of the balance we need – and how this balance has more components than just our work and the rest of our lifeTips for getting started.Find out more on the show notes page: https://englishwithkirsty.com/podcast/episode291/
