A well-presented, enthusiastic and inspirational teacher who is dedicated to ensuring pupils acquire, utilise and consolidate their knowledge, skills and understanding appropriate to all curriculum areas. I have an extensive knowledge of teaching and learning from nursery to year six. I have high expectations for behaviour and maintain a calm, respectful and hard-working learning environment where pupils are comfortable and learn to the best of their ability. I am passionate about all subjects but English and maths have always been two favourite subjects of mine; they form the foundation for learning in all other subjects and I believe teaching pupils maths and english forms the very basis of the present day society in which children and young adults are living today. With this ethos in mind, I have a very high subject matter knowledge in English with regard to grammar and writing structure and in maths with regards to reasoning and mental arithmetic. I have worked as a year 6 teacher in many schools. I have extensive knowledge of the new format of the SATs and am able to teach intervention groups and booster groups to raise children's knowledge of reading, the SPAG tests, and mathematic reasoning and arithmetic tests. I feel that working with smaller groups in these subject areas can be more beneficial: some children gain a considerable amount from intensive focused teaching whether their need is emotional or academic. I have had a great deal of experience working in classrooms with whole groups of children and also have worked with small groups of children outside the classroom. I have seen the positive effects that one-to-one intervention can have on children and always bring that level of academic intimacy to the classroom.
