Hey Hanan! I think you're off to a great start by asking this question. It speaks volumes that you understand the importance of using your time wisely. I would recommend you volunteer in fields that you are interested in or take some free classes online (https://www.lynda.com). Some hospitals even have opportunities for you to shadow professionals.

Simeon’s Answer

I would recommend looking into working at a summer camp. They employ people just like you every summer who are just needing workers for a few months. You can make a lot of new friends and memories as well as get certified for lifeguarding and ropes course work. You can use your lifeguard certifications outside of the summer too if you need to find extra part-time work.
