@myrrhgoodwin
Reliable, creative trainee primary educator skilled in SEN support, classroom leadership, and teamwork.
What I'm looking for
I am a committed BA Primary Education with QTS student with hands-on experience supporting children with special educational needs in mainstream and specialist settings. I bring strong classroom management, one-to-one intervention delivery, and practical therapy support to help every child succeed.
My background includes volunteering and paid roles across schools, preschools, and community organisations where I led games, planned lessons, and supported assemblies and trips. I am first aid trained and experienced in manual handling, wheelchair transfers, and adapting resources using visuals and communication tools.
I am dependable, punctual, and people-focused, with strengths in public speaking, teamwork, and creative lesson delivery informed by theatre arts and performing experience. I have practical experience with Microsoft Office and basic Python, and I have completed Sports Leaders Level 1 training.
I seek to contribute my practical SEN skills, positive behaviour guidance, and enthusiasm for inclusive primary education while continuing my professional development towards qualified teacher status.
