Summary
I am a passionate class teacher with many years experience in creating an inspiring and engaging learning environment for my students. I am highly skilled at motivating students through positive encouragement and reinforcement of concepts via creative and captivating lessons. My experience has led me to become successful in helping students develop not only academic success but also strong life skills such as independence, leadership, collaboration, ambition and more. I am able to utilise many forms of technology in order to fulfill my daily tasks. As a colleague, I am collaborative and communicative which contributes to creating a strong, positive work and learning environment. Finally, I fell in love with learning as a young child and I aspire to support my students in finding their passions as well.
