      2016 - 2020
      (MA) Integrated Masters Modern Languages First Class Honours

      Activities and Societies: Ladies' lacrosse first team (academic years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018) Cox for the university's rowing club (academic years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018) The University of Southampton is the only institution in the UK which offers an Integrated Masters in Languages (MLang). This required a high academic standard at the start as well as continued assessment of my academic progress throughout to ensure that I was working at Masters level. My final year dissertation looked at language and identity in Mexican people living in Southampton.

    • Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México

      2018 - 2019
      Year abroad as part of my UK degree. Spanish

      Activities and Societies: I offered private English tuition to Mexican students in my university subsequently improving my own command of the Spanish language. I was the only British student in the university and only two faculty members had English as a first language. This meant that I quickly adapted to speaking Spanish on a daily basis in social and academic settings and ensured that my level of spoken and written Spanish was near native by the time I left Mexico. Whilst I was in Mexico, I took the opportunity to travel widely and as part of my studies I did some research based on the indigenous language Nahuatl.
