I am writing to express my strong interest in the Teaching Assistant position at your school With a Bachelor's and Master’s degree in Physics, along with over seven years of teaching and teaching assistant experience in Iran and the UK, I bring a solid foundation in subject knowledge, practical classroom skills, and a genuine passion for supporting student learning

In Iran, I worked for seven years at Takesatan Education, where I taught and supported students across different levels This experience allowed me to develop strong classroom management skills, effective teaching strategies, and the ability to support students with diverse learning needs

During my Master’s degree in Physics at Shahid Beheshti University, ranked among the top five universities in Iran, I also served as a Teaching Assistant for two high-scoring undergraduate courses In this role, I led problem-solving sessions, helped students understand complex concepts, and guided them through exercises and exam preparation Additionally, my Master’s dissertation involved six months of laboratory research, allowing me to develop strong experimental and practical physics skills These experiences strengthened my technical expertise and my ability to explain ideas clearly to students with varying learning styles

In the UK, I have worked as both a teacher and a teaching assistant, including at Lea Valley Academy in Enfield Through these roles, I gained significant experience supporting students with ADHD and a range of Special Educational Needs (SEN), while continuing to develop my classroom management skills I find great fulfillment in helping pupils stay engaged, focused, and confident in their learning

My long-term goal is to pursue a Teacher Training course in the UK to qualify as a Physics teacher I believe that working as a Teaching Assistant will be excellent preparation for this, allowing me to deepen my understanding of the UK education system, refine my practical skills, and contribute positively to your students’ success

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background and skills can support your team Thank you for considering my application
