Hello, hello, lovely Dragons!!
Here Yahli "Velvet" again with the most famous section of this Blog.
 
And what day is today? Well, on the day of our interview with one of our staff members.
And I personally love this section because I am very curious and I like to know many more things about all my interviewees.
So without further delay, give a warm welcome to our wonderful Head of Academy: Roshana Clemonte !!
 
 
 Hello, dear. Thank you so much for being here. Let's start with the interview. You recently came to Jade Mountain Academy, although I daresay you have a lot of experience in that or similar positions ... Am I wrong? How does it feel to be in a job with so much responsibility?
 I definitely have quite a bit of experience, but Head of Academy is something completely new for me. I've had countless student jobs and have been working as an Assistant Teacher/Protégé, Prefect/Hall Monitor and Backstory Member/Scout on another WoX site for a long time, and have been an active part of my house's Quidditch Team as well. I have been a Teacher/Preceptor and since mid March, I have now been Prefect Leader/Hall Monitors Leader on WoP UK. As for this new role, this new responsibility..I have to admit that it was, and still sometimes is, quite overwhelming. The biggest team I've worked with so far is 8 people and to now have this role for a bigger team is something I am still getting used to. That being said, I am determined to do my very best and to hopefully meet everybody's expectations. 
 
 
Yeahhh a lot of experience!!
 
Well... Managing a team of all those people, verifying that all classes are correct and of the correct quality, and that all homework is correctly graded is one of the hardest jobs in an academy. Why do you think you are there? What do you think made you the perfect person for that position? it is clear that you are !!
 I have been approached by Garrett who asked me if I was interested in taking this role. Garrett knows me from another site already, so I daresay he knew what he was was aware of the risk he was taking  ;) I think I'm suited for this role because I have very clear ideas about how I want things to be done and to be dealt with. I have values and expectations that I not only hold to myself, but to everyone I work with. I can be strict when needed, but if anyone on my team is ever dealing with a rougher time irl or needs advice, support or a different point of view, I'm always here to help. 
 
Sure!!
 
Ehemmm, lets get go out my curious side... Can you tell us something about the person behind Roshana Clemonte?
The person behind Roshana is....well, for one, I'm terrible at keeping rooms clean and tidy. Truly terrible. But that aside, I'm a huge history nerd, I love to write and have recently found my passion for painting again, and am barely ever completely sitting still. I'm always up for a little chat and love to learn something new every day. 
 
 
I see!! I am a desaster too...  And how is she IG, what would you highlight about her and her dragon side?
In general, Roshana is a very calm and collected person. She isn't the most extroverted person and prefers to stay out of huge social gatherings. However, when she's with the people she knows best, she relaxes a bit and comes out of her shell. She loves to laugh and to feel the wind on her skin - she's truly a child of the sun and the sea, and could spend ages exploring the coastlines. She is patient with everyone around her but despite her gentle nature, she isn't afraid to put her foot down when it is needed. In her dragonform Keo, on the other hand, she is somewhat more temperamental and has less patience. 
 

And we love to see you smile, dear!!

 

 And finally, since you are in WoJM, what does this place mean to you? What do you like the most and the least?

 I have not much knowledge about Jade Mountain yet, I have to admit, but I'm learning something new every day. The whole site feels very colourful and energetic, so this is definitely something I appreciate. So far, there is nothing I like the least, and I'm quite sure it will stay that way :D

 

Oh, thank you so much, dear Roshana!!

 

Isn't she an extraordinary woman?

Well, that's all for today, lovely dragons!!


With a lot of love,

 

Social Media Counsellor.
