Example Personal Summary:

As a friendly, flexible and adaptable practitioner, I firmly believe children learn most effectively when work is child centred and differentiated to suit their individual needs. In the classroom, I provide the opportunity of a varied curriculum with a balance between practical and academic activities, which will enhance the children’s enquiring minds and help them gain confidence in their own ability. I aim to teach in a variety of styles using different approaches, methods and sources that help to motivate and inspire the best possible learning. I utilise whole class teaching, group and individual work, depending on the needs of the pupils. I seek to present a stimulating, attractive and safe environment in which all children are presented with positive images of themselves and their culture. I promote positive reinforcement of good behaviour and ensure the children work collaboratively on devising a class code of conduct.

I enjoy listening to a wide range of music and can teach recorder lessons. I like walking in my spare time and use it as a means of spending quality time with friends and family.
