I was a Radiographer in my country of Korea. When I came here at about 2 months ago I did not speak English well but was wanting to try to contact an x-ray practice for work experience. I asked the GV Noosa staff for advice and they said not to be scared and encourage me to go and ask the x-ray practice next to the college for experience. It was very difficult for me because my English was not so good. I was worried about that however I tried and they said yes and I could work as a volunteer there! I work there once a week for 3 hours. It is not many hours but I am very satisfied and the time spent is very valuable to me. When I go there I am still a little bit nervous but it is very useful to me and a great experience.

You can do it everyone. Don’t be scared!

Good Luck

Anna Lee
