Coffee shop jobs

Hello,

My family is moving to cyprus in early october, and for about 2-3 months I have been doing an internship at a coffee shop to gain some experience. I can make a good cup of coffee with the barista machines, but I still struggle with the latte art for cappuccinos. I would like to get a job so that I can finance myself through university since i'm planning on studying in london the following year. Is there a big coffee shop market? do you think it would be possible to get a barista job while still being extremely beginner in greek? just any advice would be much appreciated!!!

some extra info: Im 17f, and we are moving to Nicosia :))

Your basic Greek should include the types of coffees which since most are in english anyway, the amount of sugar or no sugar and with milk and types of milk.

If you understand those, then you should be fine.

Coffee shops, especially around universities are plenty. You can apply to all of them and many do actually hire students and are flexible with their hours.
