As mentioned, I have been working in the project named Childhood Obesity with Citizen Uk. There, I have organised listening groups with parents where, my duties involved to arrange meetings with leaders to present our project, later recruiting parents for our group and present our project in the group to collect parent opinions. In this role, I have created a networking of influences in the community with head teachers at schools, managers in libraries, children centres, leaders in church's and connections in other charities. Also, I had the experience being Information and Support advisor in Volunteer Centre Southwark (2014). The main duties were interpreting spanish speakers interest into the english language, lead them to the relevant department and making calls to speak with managers that offers volunteer positions. This position requires entry details in database, searching opportunities and making calls to arrange interviews.

Now I have a question that I am seeing in employment application forms. Please if you have any advise about my answer besides the grammar corrections, it would be appreciated. Here it goes: Please explain any gaps in your employment history: Maximum length: 4000 The gaps in my employment history can be explained into two periods. The first period started in 2009. During this period, I was partly inactive due to the reduction of working hours in my work place that affected all the staff. As a result of these changes, I had spent more time in studies which taught me the basis of the office environment and help with my career prospects. Then, the second period started in January 2015, when my baby born. Since there, I spent time with the baby education for almost two years. Along the first year, I have participated with children centres activities which enrich my sense of community and known of the organisations in my area.January 10, 201740

Pedro el ratón. Capítulo cinco. Una mañana en octubre.
Una mañana en de octubre, Pedro se levantó a las ocho. Hizo Preparó una taza de café (con leche y azúcar, claro) y se sentó a la mesa en su cocina a desayunar.
“Estoy un poco nervioso hoy,” él pensó. “Voy a tener una cena con Raquel en el parque central esta noche. ¿Pero qué vamos a hacer después de cenar comemos?”
Tomó un poco de su café.
"Quizás podemos alquilar dos bicicletas y montarlas por el parque después de comer. Hay muchas rutas buenas allá ó - él pensó- quizás podemos caminar por la a la calle Broadway y ver una obra de teatro después de comer. Hay muchas obras buenas allá ó quizás es mejor ir al cine después de comer. Sé que Rachel quiere ver una película que se llama “An American Tail.”
Tomó más café.
Pedro pensó, y pensó, y pensó. Y después de pensar para mucho tiempo, tuvo una respuesta a su pregunta.
“Ya sé qué vamos a hacer !,” él dijo. “Vamos a cenar, y después vamos a nadar en el estanque de las tortugas ! Y Las tortugas me agradan, porque usan las palabras en inglés cortas y fáciles como “hola, Pedro!” y “quieres un café?” También, a las tortugas les gusta cantar en por las noches. A Raquel le gusta escuchar la música, y las tortugas cantan muy bien. Y sé que hay una laguna bonita cerca de allá dónde podemos escuchar a las tortugas cantar.”
Terminó su café.
"Parece que va a ser estar una noche perfecta,” él pensó.
(Y si quieres saber mas, el estanque de las tortugas es un lugar de verdad. Está en el parque central de Nueva York. Está Al norte de la calle 79, entre del museo de arte metropolitano y el museo de la historia natural.)

What I am trying to focus on:
1. Gender + plural agreement.
2. Ser + Estar and using them correctly.
3. Character development. <--- This really has nothing to do with language. :-)
4. Decir. I’m not sure I’m using this verb correctly, but pobre Pedro had to talk eventually.
5. I don’t know ANY future tenses yet. I only know “ir + a + verbo.” So that’s why all my future tenses are written like so. I'll learn...
¡Muchas gracias a todos!I would say that you can control the gender. Some articles are unnecessary dont need to mention. The rest is written very well, in my opinion :) well done!
