Hello Sam!

A big hello to everyone out there! 
My name is Sam, I’m 25 and I’m the new Student Services Officer here at TTPL.  
I graduated from Southampton Solent University in May where I gained a First Class Honours in International Tourism Management and I am now eager to get stuck into this vital role. I am a cheerful chap, loud, excitable and potentially annoying as I like to be a part of everything and anything.  I live for football and worship the mighty Torquay United but I also enjoy the “quieter” things in life like snowboarding, live music and socialising with my crazy friends. I am passionate about Torquay and the surrounding area and encourage you all to explore my home town and learn about our history and GeoPark status (Yes I am a secret geek/ecowarrior).

I have been working with international students both abroad and in the UK since I was 17 and love meeting new people, hearing about the differences in our lives and learning about different cultures and traditions. If you have any pointless facts about your country that will enhance my quiz knowledge please tweet me @TTPLsupport. On a serious note my role here at TTPL is to make sure our trainees have the best possible experience.  I am a firm believer in the benefits of work placement experiences and want you to create happy memories that last for a lifetime whilst developing your career potential. To ensure your experience is an amazing one, I need to know how you are, how your work placement is, your host family, is there anything bothering you and what can we do better?  Information is vital and without hearing your views I’m afraid I cannot help you. I promise I don’t bite and although I might look strange I assure you I’m nice and your welfare is what is important to me. I am here to help, support and aid your stay here in Devon, so please please please email, call or come and visit me in the TTPL office and let me know how you are today!!!


So...Welcome Sam, from all of us at TTPL
