Francesca Monteiro

I am currently attending the University of Edinburgh studying Chinese and Linguistics, with the included opportunity to study for a year in China. Learning languages has inspired my passion for linguistics and how it can be utilised in the communications sector.

I gained an interest in education through volunteering to teach both English and Chinese to younger students. This encouraged me to work with the EduLit and EcoStem branches of Eduspots, where I learned more about the value of community-driven education structures. I cannot wait to join the organisation from a different angle and to contribute to its mission.
