I have an enhanced child workforce DBS and a degree in Childhood Studies. I also am Level 2 Safeguarding trained. For 3 years I worked in a dance school as an assistant teacher, in which I helped deliver safe and fun classes for children ages 3-16. I worked for 2 summers with the English Camp Company teaching English to children. I had to plan age appropriate lessons for children and had to plan fun afternoon activities to suit a variety of ages. I worked for a summer as an au pair/nanny for a family who had one 6 year old boy. I would take care of him from the hours of 8am-4pm for 5 days each week and during that time I prepared meals, lightly cleaned the house and played with him/planned days out. I worked as an English and Maths teacher with primary school children, planning and delivering lessons to help them in their SATs. I received full training on how to plan challenging and engaging lessons and how to facilitate interaction in a small group setting. I have worked in Further Education colleges with teenagers, coordinating and supervising catch up tuition for GCSE English and Maths. I also have experience working with older children in delivering mental health support groups for young people.
