Teaching is a big part of who I am, and I can’t see myself doing anything else than teaching. I have been a full time teacher for 4 full year and I loved every minute of it. My specialized subjects when I studied were, Human movement (PE, Life Skills) and Geography. Since teaching, the subjects I taught the most were, PE, Geography, Mathematics, English, Natural Sciences, Technology and History, which I have a great interest in. I particularly enjoy teaching History as there are many sources you can use namely, videos, pictures, old passages and storytelling. I aim to become a teacher and over time work myself to a more senior level in the education system.

Skills (not an exhaustive list)
• Sport coaching (Rugby, Athletics, Cross-Country, Swimming)
• The patience to help maintain a balance between my own expectations and the
students’ unique abilities.
• Ability to apply a range of classroom behavior management strategies.
• Using blended e-learning strategies to cater for diverse learner needs.
• Formative assessment (Setting up of rubrics, examination papers and general
assessment papers).

resources, planning, intervention and record of students’ grades.)
A strength of mine is to create a non-racist, non-sexist, and non-discriminatory work
area that recognizes students’ learning needs, abilities, identities, languages and
talents. I always encourage my students to reflect on their own processes. I support
and empower my students where I can, no matter what their individual
circumstances are, I want them to achieve excellence and enjoy learning. I had the
opportunity to help with the planning of PE, Life Skills, Technology, History, Science
and English for a year. I tried to plan the work so that it has relations to the students
and their lives outside of the school and I tried to keep the work relevant to them,
their community and their families.
