I have always had a passion for education. This has left me in good stead to become a dedicated teacher driven to inspire students to achieve personal academic success. I specialise in English, Health and Social Care, Sociology, Psychology and Special Educational Needs. My particular strengths are an ability to work to pressurised deadlines and be flexible. I have a mature and conscientious teaching approach, which allows me to be innovative within the classroom. I believe in using various approaches to teaching, which facilitate the active participation of students and involve them fully in their group and individual learning. I have further enhanced my own capabilities as an educational practitioner and have grown and evolved considerably and have been graded 1 in lesson observations. Having moved from mainstream teaching to special needs, has enabled me to expand my skills and depth of knowledge within this area. Working with small groups and on a one-to-one basis has greatly emphasised the need for individual learning plans and the need for flexibility. During my teaching career, I have been involved in the training of trainee teachers. In each case, acting as a mentor and helping to support the development of skills of teaching and learning practice, whilst on placement. This experience also helped to develop my own teaching as it enabled the sharing of new ideas and good practice.
My names Amanda and I have been a teacher for the last 17 years and now work part time. I am very passionate about learning and teaching, whilst helping students to develop to their full potential. My teaching method is dynamic and I like to use a range of activities to help support learning. I believe in using various approaches to teaching, which facilitate the active participation of students and involve them fully in their group and individual learning.
