My TY Work Experience

Hello, my name is Sarah Rose, I am a TY Student and did my work experience as an assistant at Atlantic Scuba Adventures in Spring 2024.

We went snorkeling and saw many star fish and crabs. We filmed a lot underwater. We also did lots of workshops on cleaning, equipment, content creation, and presenting.

All in all I had so much fun during my TY work experience program with ASA.

A Student’s Point of View

I’m a 16-year-old TY student from Connemara. I have always had a passion for everything that is involved in our oceans and as a lifeguard in-training, I’m no stranger to the waters.

In conclusion, I have thoroughly enjoyed my work experience at Atlantic Scuba Adventures. I will highly recommend this work experience to anyone who has a passion for aquatic life, not only for the work experience itself, but for the kind and caring crew that work here too. I have always felt welcomed by them, and I am forever grateful for the environment that they have created for us.
