Ella-Rose Nield
Wembley Downs,WA
Summary
I am a motivated and enthusiastic third year Bachelor of Education student with a strong interest in supporting students in mainstream classroom settings. I have been working as a mainstream and special needs EA for about a year through the Department of Education, but I am looking for a school I can come back too. I am known for my warm, professional manner and strong work ethic, developed through experience in hospitality, swim teaching, and self-employment. These roles have strengthened my ability to build positive relationships, communicate clearly, and support individuals with diverse needs. I am organised, reliable, and attentive to detail, with a genuine passion for helping children feel supported, confident, and engaged in their learning. I take pride in working collaboratively with teachers, contributing positively to classroom environments, and supporting students’ academic, social, and emotional development.
