What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Learning Support Assistant with a passion for fostering student development and academic success. My experience spans various educational settings, where I have effectively assisted students with diverse needs, including those with English as an additional language. I pride myself on my ability to create a supportive and engaging learning environment, ensuring that each student feels valued and understood.
Throughout my career, I have honed my administrative skills while working in roles such as an Administrator at Enterprise-Rent-A-Car and a Receptionist at Morden Solicitors. These positions have equipped me with a strong foundation in data management, communication, and organizational skills. I am proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, which I utilize to prepare educational materials and maintain accurate records of student progress.
My educational background, including a certificate from Harvard University in data-wise teaching and learning, complements my hands-on experience in the classroom. I am committed to continuous professional development and am eager to contribute positively to a dynamic educational team.
