My Career As An Art Teacher

Like Mrs. Williams, I feel that building relationships and a culture of respect and trust is key to being an effective leader.

Throughout my fantastic two year job role as a tutor, I have grown to love and aspire to make a difference to a child's education. After receiving training including the National Curriculum methods, I have developed planning, teaching and marking skills, using various resources to support a child.

I feel that problem solving is a well-desired skill for all children to learn because it will help them throughout their whole lives.
