I am a person with principles and morals aswell an aspiring teacher with experience committed to improve and broaden her knowledge. I am empathetic and resilient. I would like to improve vulnerable children and young people's lives through high quality care throughout my career.
I started work experience in this sector to build my curriculum as an aspiring teacher. Firstly I provided the school with a completed garda vetting assessment.
During my experience as a support teacher i advocate for teenager's/children's rights within a spectrum with my knowledge from the Aistear and Siolta Curriculum Framework of Ireland and Barnardos Introduction to the rights of the child.
My responsibilities in this placement are to assist the students in the SUAS ( " special " needs department ). I assist my students by accompanying them to their classes and all their activities.
I have formed trusting relationships and bonds with students ages 13-18 by exhibiting unconditional positive regard in building self-worth and confidence. This bond allows me to support my students in academic and extracurricular activities.
I am a resilient aspiring teacher who has been around the spectrum since childhood.
I was an online English tutor for Spanish students ages 13-17.
My responsibility in this job was to create a system that allowed me to tutor four groups of three ranging from youngest to oldest.
I provided a service four times a week with one hour sessions with each group.
I delivered classes using Whatsapp groups with online safety precautions and rules created by the students and I to offer a safe learning environment.
For each class i had exercises and worksheets prepared to develop students grammar performance. I typically split the class in two thirty minute sessions. One session was dedicated to written work and the second session was dedicated to oral communication skills.
This was a positive learning experience where both parties, the students and I were able to learn from each other.
