I am a friendly and enthusiastic individual with 7 years of experience in tutoring and child care. From the age of 15 to 18 years old, I worked for the tutoring company Kumon, assisting children aged between 3-13 with their English and Maths work sheets. During this time, I learnt how to engage students and analyse their strengths and weaknesses in order to adjust my teaching approach accordingly. Kumon gave me the opportunity to work with children who had special educational needs, developing my ability to teach a wide range of students with different requirements.

During my second year of University, I worked as a STEM Workshop Leader for Aveea Academy. I planned and delivered STEM workshops for groups of 20-30 children aged between 5 and 11, while supporting students with Special Educational Needs. Aveea Academy provided me Safeguarding, Diversity and Inclusion training and a Full Emergency Paediatric Certificate. Working at Aveea helped me to develop my skills in lesson planning, classroom engagement and managing large groups of children, while ensuring I could confidently communicate with parents and other members of staff. I enjoy being in a classroom environment and finding innovative ways to encourage students to learn and achieve their goals.

Additionally, I have experience working in two FE colleges, where I performed administrative tasks and co-ordinated industry placements for students. Working in Data admin enhanced my organisational skills, allowing me to plan lessons more efficiently.
