I have taught a health class to over 200 students over 4 months in 4 different schools. Students were aged between 10-14 years old. I also taught and ESL adult summer course for 5 weeks. I have experience working with children and enjoy being around children of all ages (babies to teens). In one of my previous positions I taught a variety of subjects to teens that were developmentally disabled – so, they were at the intellectual level of elementary school students. We had activities such as dancing, singing, art, music, etc.
I am an easy-going person that can get along with anybody. I am a positive-thinker and optimistic. I have lived abroad before where I was the only English-speaker for about 20 miles, so I understand how it is to not be understood or be able to communicate effectively. I've learned a different language and understand what that's like. I bring those perspectives to this position. I also respect other cultures and values and don't pass judgement for any differences from my culture and values.
I enjoy learning and helping others learn. I am comfortable with public speaking and leading a class.

I am a self-motivated person with a positive outlook and very tenacious in everything I do. I can demonstrate this by being committed to my leisure interests having taken ballet lessons for 12 years and attending Stagecoach, a performing arts school, for 7 years. Both of these helped to increase my confidence by performing in front of people. During my second year of university I undertook a five-week placement at Marlwood School where I was a teaching assistant in the drama department. I assisted with both lessons and after school activities such as rehearsals for the school play. I also enjoy travelling and learning about various cultures and in August 2014 I travelled to Australia on my own to visit family living there, which gave me a sense of independence.

I am a native English speaker and have completed the 120 Hour TEFL course. Teaching and interacting with people comes naturally to me and is something I find to be rewarding. I interact well with people of all age groups. I have a very bubbly personality and a positive attitude.

I also have a keen interest in learning languages and find I am able to pick them up very quickly. In high school, I studied French and Afrikaans. I also lived in Greece for a short period of time when I was younger and can still speak it at a basic level. I feel that since I have learnt different languages I am able to teach them in a enjoyable and stimulating way.

I have been involved in different forms of teaching for the majority of my life. I grew up teaching other kids how to play basketball or sing. Then in middle school and high school I was the Vice President of my grade. I would spend time teaching others how to adapt to new and different situations. Currently, I am studying journalism and I consider that to be a form of teaching as well. Through journalism, I got spend time with someone, I learn what they do, then I break it down to simple, understandable forms and teach it to my viewers.

I a person who is easy to engage with. I love listening to people and in turn providing feedback. Many people I meet tell me I am very easy to be around. I'm always open to change, adaptation, and problem solving. One of my main personality strengths is the desire to develop other people. When I recognize a need in someone else's life I have an desire to provide help in providing the need. This would make me a great teacher because it is in my nature to buildup others.

Administration, logistics, organization and orderliness are among my top skills. Through my education I have become proficient in Microsoft programs as well as Adobe Creative Cloud programs. I am also skilled in public speaking, planning, and special events.
