Administrator-infosecretary
Tartu Art School
Sep 2013 - Present (8 years 1 month)
The administrator-infosecretary job included many different tasks that are all important for the school’s everyday life. The tasks included communication with students, employees, teachers and guests, renting out devices for schoolwork, assisting with different events, dealing with applications and much more. This was a wonderful time, which gave me a positive experience in a friendly, loving and creative environment. It also gave me an opportunity to communicate with different people and to see how a school, especially an art school daily works.
