Since the age of 15 I have had a large variety of part-time jobs which has enabled me to acquire a wide range of useful skills that can be applied to teaching. My ongoing job working as a bar supervisor involves communicating effectively with my team to ensure excellent customer service is delivered. Management of staff requires me to be flexible and adaptable to ensure the expectations of the team are met, even under high pressured situations. I remain patient when teaching new staff about the job role and I'm always friendly and willing to help with any questions or problems they might encounter. I also have experience as a teaching assistant in a UK nursery school. This involved interacting with the children to help them develop reading, writing and numeracy skills but also aiding the teachers with creative lesson plans to keep the children engaged. I thrived in this environment as I'm a very enthusiastic and optimistic person which enabled the children to be motivated to learn. Achieving a first-class honours in my master’s degree demonstrates that I am extremely hardworking but also can effectively plan and manage my time. I also studied in Australia for my third year of University which required me to be very independent and confident in a completely new situation.
