child minding or teaching assistant
| my name is Damola and I would like to apply for any vacancy in your organization. With my background in classroom management and child development, along with my Postgraduate Diploma in Early Childhood Education, I’m confident I can make a positive impact at your school. Currently, I am pursuing a Master of Arts in Education at the University of Derby, which has further deepened my understanding of modern teaching methods and child-centered learning environments. In my previous roles, such as Teaching Assistant at Oaklane Schools and Siavick International School, I worked closely with lead teachers to create engaging lesson plans and manage classrooms effectively. I’ve always enjoyed fostering strong relationships with both students and parents, and I believe open communication is key to creating a supportive learning environment where children can thrive. I also bring valuable customer service and team collaboration experience from my time at Rhoddy’s Bites, where I handled everything from managing orders to resolving customer issues. These experiences have strengthened my ability to multitask and manage varying demands—skills that are essential in any teaching environment.
