Capable and patient student seeking experience before undertaking a career in primary teaching.
|
Hi! I'm Martha, and I am currently undertaking my Masters degree, before starting a PGCE in Primary Education this September. I am hoping to pick up some childcare experience, not only as experience before I dive into teaching, but also because I am passionate about creating fun, safe and educational environments for children to develop and thrive in.
I have volunteered at two primary schools. I loved seeing how the children thrived in the creative learning environment. As an artist myself, I hope to bring some of my own skills to the table. I have also worked with the Family Support Team at my local hospice. Together we worked with small groups of children after school, exploring sensitive subjects in a creative, compassionate and empathetic manner.
I also work closely with the Activities Coordinator at my local nursing home, to provide a better quality of life for our residents, many of whom have a very young mental age. Together we engage in group work such as art, baking, quizzes, sports, amongst other things.
Overall, I believe that I am a capable and patient person, with a good sense of humour and a passion for inspiring children, and I greatly look forward to the opportunities that care.com might offer.
