Experience: As a high school student, I worked extensively with the school's nursery. I would assist in organising running activities, organising important daily routines such as meal-times and nap-times. I would co-ordinate with the senior teacher to assist with running of the nursery and resolving any issues that may arise. I would also be responsible for a number of students at a time, ensuring their safety throughout the day and this provided me excellent experience communicating with young children.

Personality: I am a passionate, diligent and motivated individual. From a young age I have had an unrivalled love for languages. I was fortunate to attend a bilingual nursery where I learnt English and Spanish side-by-side which awakened a deeper desire to investigate other languages and the cultures to which they are a key. Upon graduating university I decided to pursue a career that would enable me to share my passion for languages and I am dedicated to imparting my knowledge of the English language to those who wish to learn while learning more about and immersing myself in new and captivating cultures. I thrive in working in team environments and seeing people reach their goals whether large or small and it would be an honour to help students reach their English language aims.

Skills: I am affable, confident, encouraging and outgoing which I believe are key traits for a teacher to possess. I have experience organising large groups of people. As the captain of my university's lacrosse team, I was responsible for the preparation and execution of training sessions which required time management skills, dedication, effort, time and attention. I believe that I have the focus and commitment required to effectively live up to expectations required of a successful English teacher.

I am an effective communicator, with 5 months experience teaching in a primary school ages 11-13. I love children, I am patient and outspoken. I am currently a lecturer teaching Economics in a Business College

I am a hardworking, reliable and responsible qualified teacher who enjoy working with children. On various occasions from 2020-2021, I worked as a substitute teacher at a local primary school from as little as just 1 day to two whole weeks of substituting.
Through this experience I learned how to interact with various learners as well as how to implement inclusive education for learners who need it. I taught in both English Home Language as well as Afrikaans Home Language classes, and therefore have experience in teaching all subjects of a grade in English, along with teaching English as a second language to the Afrikaans classes.
My skills include Microsoft Office, effective classroom management as well as time management and being adaptable to different situations that may arise in the classroom or school environment.

I am a passionate, enigmatic individual with a patient demeanour and a confident, friendly attitude. I love taking on a challenge and using my creativity and problem-solving skills to find a solution. Overall, I am a people person that aims to make other happy, I will go out of my way to make sure that people are happy and that they understand a situation entirely. I am passionate about bringing the language of English to people and being a part of peoples' personal and educational developments. In regards to experience, I have a years experience of tutoring in English and other core subjects, due to tutoring my younger sister, who is 9 years old. I use the techniques that I have learned from my Level 5 TEFL Qualification to assist me in my tutoring, as my qualification gives me the skills necessary to educate to a high standard.

When I was in school, I was also a peer mentor for a younger student for half of a year; we would meet weekly so that I could tutor him in any piece of work that he found difficult. I have, for multiple years, also worked with my mum, by assisting her in running her childminding business. I create stimulating and fun educational activities for the children (ages 2-4) which promote and supplement their educational growth.

To summarise, I am a logical, forward-thinking and creative person that performs to a high standard in high pressure environments, using a meticulous approach to ensure that the right actions are implemented in varying scenarios.
