Summary
I am a studious and passionate student wanting to build my experience working in the educational field. I am currently in my third year of studying a bachelor of education, majoring in special education. I am an engaging and compassionate educator committed to promoting a safe learning environment for all. In February 2024, I was honoured with the opportunity to be one of three students to participate in a short-term exchange program through my university. I spent one month in Germany, learning how to teach and support students learning English as an additional language. It was an amazing experience that provided me with such valuable skills in supporting students with a diverse range of needs.
