ACADEMIC TEACHING:
I have been working in education over the last four years and my particular area of expertise is in supporting children with learning difficulties. It is due to this experience that I have gained specific skills and am able to offer my pupils a variety of learning techniques and strategies. With my last employer I underwent a vast amount of training and delivered eight different learning programs/ interventions, with children from Foundation age up to Year 6. I have also been tutoring pupils over the last three years and have an excellent track record of improving exam and level results.
