Summary
I've completed my Secondary PGCE in Mathematics, and I am currently seeking a Maths Teacher role, ideally at a Secondary School in Southampton. I also hold a first-class BSc in Mathematics, and I want to join an excellent and encouraging team to apply my knowledge and skills. I have gained experience working in fast-paced environments, and I've improved my teamwork skills and social interactions with staff, customers and children alike. I've worked in Education for over a year now and have 3 months' experience working with customers in retail, so I can also apply my transferable skills to similar jobs that require strong mathematical ability
