Hello there,

In person:
I like to use whiteboard format, online for the most part of the lesson, and drawing whiteboard to show diagrams. This way students can take the notes that they need without being overwhelmed with the amount of information that they're given, and help to engage for visual learners rather than just 'parrot' learning. For example, if I were teaching a lesson about how the heart works I would have my basic notes such as "the right side pumps blood though the pulmonary circuit, and the left pumps blood through the systematic unit" and on the whiteboard i might draw a cross section showing the direction of blood flow and each section.

During late GCSE's I was regularly assigned 'teacher' for lower level and younger drama students, where I had to help them with their lines, expression and understanding of their characters.
In college, I was given a large project for Geography, which involved me being group leader to 5 other individuals where we had to study the ecological succession of the sand dunes in Parthcawl, Wales, where I had to teach them how to do soil samples and analyse the moisture content, create land profiles and aid taxonomic identification of plant species.
In university I recently had to teach 30 students about alloparenting in banded mongoose and how it can aid the survival of their pubs, such required researching scientific papers, developing a deep understanding and engaging in questions.

I look forward to hearing from you!
