Background:
I have been playing golf for nearly 4 years now, but I have only recently begun to consistently shoot low scores. I feel as though with every round, every aspect of my game is getting tighter. I practice as much as possible, but I have to balance my time as my academics are also of high priority. I have recently begun the International Bachelorette (IB) Diploma, and I will be completing it as a bilingual diploma with my second language being Thai. I have lived in Thailand all of my life and I speak, read and write the language fluently at the highest level. In my Thai class, I am the only non-Thai, and apparently, I will be the first foreigner at my school to complete the Diploma as a Thai-English Bilingual Diploma. I play as many golf tournaments as I can, in order to gain experience, travelling all around Thailand to do so.
Academics: Last year, I completed the Middle Years Program (MYP) in year 11.
I was an A+ grade student for MYP.
