Volunteer information..

  1. Listen to this video. What new information did you learn that is different from this morning’s? Transcribe 3:45 - 4:17, check it with 2 partners, and publish it.
I listened to this video, and I learned about newcomers find opportunities to volunteer. When you are looking for a volunteer opportunities, it's really important to think about what kind of volunteering you are looking for, So you can find volunteer many different organizations. you can contact local volunteer centre, and go to volunteer website www.volunteer.ca also Toronto local centre. When you looking for a volunteering opportunity you really want to look for something you will enjoy and that it will help you as well. It is a volunteer position, how long you are working, definitely help you. When you do your volunteering opportunity you will find it useful and meaningful as well get Canadian experience. Another great opportunity for a newcomer of volunteer is that it's a great opportunity to meet new people, connect to the local community, and practice your English language skills. You learn more about Canadian culture and learn about what's happening around, and good listening or convercation skills, knowledge of community resources an asset.





I listened to the video. I learned how to include in the resume.
To include your volunteering in your resume, it’s important to list it just like any other position, particularly if it’s very much related to your career choice. So mention it’s a volunteer position, how long you’re working there, definitely put down lots of details in terms of what you’re actually  doing and the kind of tasks you’re actually part of while volunteering in the organization. That will essentially help the review of you resume, understand what you’re doing as a volunteer and they will see it just as important as any of your other paid experiences as well.
