So, when the chance arose, I opted to work as an intern at &#8220;Stories caf\u00c3\u00a9&#8221; and learn about different types of coffees, shakes, frappes, and other beverages, as well as their recipes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LO 1 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This experience helped me to hone my barista skills and overcome fears such as being around so many people and working at such a fast pace to serve customers on time.

In addition, I was able to understand their accounting processes and present my ideas to consumers. Furthermore, I improved my active listening skills, alertness, positive personality, and multitasking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8990\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-22-at-12.42.40-PM-265x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"265\" height=\"300\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8991\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-22-at-12.42.09-PM-300x188.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8989\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-22-at-12.43.03-PM-225x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve always been intrigued by what happens behind the scenes at a caf\u00c3\u00a9, and my interest has increased over time.
