Skills
Learning has to be fun
§ I am driven by the concept that children should be proud of who they are, what they know and what they can achieve Children should be catered for as a whole person regardless of their race, gender, environment and other circumstances
§ I am committed to children developing appropriate personal qualities, learning and behavior and skills of helping and caring for each other is a high priority Children should be given the opportunity to enjoy learning in a warm, positive and supportive environment
§ I believe that as a teacher it is my responsibility to provide a nurturing environment in which each child is empowered to achieve its potential in learning and behavior
§ I have the responsibility to establish a comfortable classroom community where children value learning and behave in ways that will enhance their own as well as each other’s learning
§ Children can help each other – sense of belonging and co-operation I believe in shared ownership I empower and encourage children to take risks, be responsible and accept challenges
§ Education is about the whole person therefore, I am committed to meeting the physical, emotional and social development of the child in my care
§ High standards should be set with a focus on achieving success and best outcome for all
§ I also have a desire to grow professionally and to be challenged to deliver excellence
Curriculum Strengths
Literacy is one of the most important curriculum. It covers a huge part of everyday life in our society and it is therefore extremely important to give students the best opportunities that we can in this area., I believe numeracy is an extremely important curriculum area and it is one that I particularly enjoy teaching., I really enjoy teaching science as a curriculum area., I really love art, both within the curriculum and in my own personal life.
Learning Styles
I utilise more pictures and videos in class., I like to use various vocabularies to describe situations., Use of gestures and facial gestures along verbal instructions., I prefer using logic, reasoning and systems., I believe that teaching and learning occurs better when one interacts and shares ideas.
