inspiring, engaging, and respectful to all learning abilities

My lessons are fun, engaging and motivating. I will fit the lesson to the individual needs of each learner. I am aware of trauma-informed practices, and my lessons are trauma sensitive. Throughout my practice, I encourage pupils to participate and contribute in a highly conducive learning atmosphere. I have consistently set high expectations of learners in different training contexts. I promote high levels of mutual respect between me and my learners and effectively promote learners’ resilience, confidence and independence when tackling challenging activities. In my lesson, I generate high levels of enthusiasm, participation and commitment to learning.

I plan lessons that often use well-chosen, imaginative and creative strategies, that match individuals’ needs and interests. I am highly reflective in critically evaluating my practice. I am able to accurately judge the impact of my practice on individuals and groups of learners and can use my evaluation to inform future planning, teaching and learning.

During my training, I have shown initiative in contributing to curriculum planning and developing and producing effective learning resources in my placement settings.
