\end{itemize}

Each section is a \section{} block. You can add, remove or reorder them freely:

% Ajouter une section Bénévolat
\section{\faIcon{hands-helping} Volunteering}

\cvitem{Python Instructor}{2021 -- 2023}{Code For All Association}

Tips for a Great CV

• One page: unless you have extensive experience or an academic profile, aim for one page
• Quantify your results: "30% traffic increase" rather than "improved the website"
• Tailor for each position: duplicate your .tex file and adjust keywords
• Proofread the PDF: compile and check alignment, overflows and orphans
