I am a diligent student on my last year of University, studying a bachelors degree on psychology. I am also ambitious and driven. I thrive on challenge and constantly set goals for myself, so I have something to strive toward. I'm not comfortable with settling, and I'm always looking for an opportunity to do better and achieve greatness! I love working with kids as well.
Experiences in primary school and children:
Supply teaching assistant in primary schools and nursery:
Taking responsibility for a specific group activity within the class setting
Assisting the Class Teachers by having oversight of self maintaining activities
Assisting the Class Teachers with all general classroom activities
Assisting the Class Teachers with Literacy and Numeracy and other subjects.
Helping the pupils prepare for exams.
Structuring and monitoring play activities, and when necessary, taking responsibility
for the activities area outside of the classroom.
Observing, reporting and recording accurately all children’s activities as requested anD instructed by the Class Teacher
Assisting with playground duties as required
Administering First Aid, if appropriate
Working within a classroom providing general support to the teacher, working with groups of children or providing 1-1 support with a child that needs help in their subjects.

Skills I have learnt:
Understanding children's development and learning.
Resolving conflicts outside of the classroom.
Observing and evaluating student progress.
Adjusting behaviour in students.
Engaging students in a lesson.
sensitivity and understanding for building good relationships with children.
excellent verbal communication skills for motivating children to learn.
active listening skills to understand the childrens' needs.
patience and the ability to remain calm in stressful situations.


I will be using a wide range of teaching methods to ensure the child has a good understanding of the subject and also my lessons will be fun so they do not get tired or bored easily.
