Business Studies and Maths lessons in Liverpool, UK.
SEN (Special Educational Needs) classroom assistant, I have gained a strong understanding of the specific needs and challenges of students with SEN. Patience, empathy, and good communication skills are essential. Additionally, having knowledge of different learning strategies and being able to adapt teaching methods to meet individual needs is crucial. Collaborating with teachers, parents, and other professionals is also important for providing the best support for students with SEN. My personal qualities include patience, empathy, good communication skills, and knowledge of different learning strategies. Collaborating with teachers, parents, and professionals is also important.
During my role as a Main Grade Lecturer I have assisted in the delivery of suitable teaching content to students in an effective way; on occasions supervised by teaching staff and assistant/head of school.
This was multiple Access and Pre-Access courses including Business, Allied Health Professions: Professional Healthcare Practice, Time Management, Psychology, Criminology, Sociology, Mental Health, Developing Self and Research related curriculum areas. My main roles and responsibilities as an initial trainee teacher were teaching level 3 business to Access to Higher Education students. Although now I am quite versatile and can teach different subjects at different levels.
Within this role I have also voluntarily taken on a pastoral/support role, engaging students who have previously been resistant to education, or faced barriers to their education, who have since regained the foundations to complete their studies with the suggested opportunity to progress into Higher Education.
I have also continued learning while teaching, completing 46 hours CPD, and I am currently enrolled on a Level 2 Counselling Skills course at the college. Hoping to progress in the future to Level 4 counselling capabilities.
I proposed during my PGCE about building links with the community and the business students and I would hope to plan, propose, and hopefully build on these links.
During my time as a lecturer, I have planned enrichment activities at Edge Hill University, aiming to provide effective and stimulating opportunities for all students involved.
I have found inclusion, equality, and diversity to be a key issue and I have been actively building on my knowledge and throughout my resource planning, I have made this a priority for effective teaching within access and pre-access. I have been and will always maintain an ethos that is focused on high quality teaching, learning and assessment for all students.
During my time at The City of Liverpool College I have made every effort to contribute to the organisation in a positive way, editing and creating effective and stimulating teaching practice in my own, and other curriculum areas.
Baring in mind the strategic objectives of each department, and the students within. I am a keen reader around not only my subject specialist area, but the other subject areas I have taught this year, focusing on the issues that may impact teaching in those subjects specifically.
I routinely update my knowledge, with an aim to update my skills on a regular basis. During my role and supervised at times by assistant, deputy, and head of school, I have effectively planned, prepared, and delivered high quality content, furthermore lessons, achieving effective classroom management, and strategic teaching goals. I have utilised a range of effective and appropriate teaching and learning methods to engage and motivate students, encouraging independence and student autonomy.
I have helped to establish and maintain a purposeful and motivating virtual, and physical learning environment during covid-19 and beyond. Helping previously disengaged students feel safe, secure, confident, and valued within teaching, pastoral, and support roles. I have aimed to establish and maintain correct and proper procedures with students which promote and maintain appropriate behaviour, communication, and respect for others, while challenging discriminatory behaviour and attitudes.
I have set and ‘marked’ work that is in accordance with assessment policies, although introducing alternative forms of mini assessment with efficacy personally during my own taught session material.
Using reflective practice, innovation, and creativity. I have assisted the access team, and mentors track student progress and attendance in accordance with agreed systems and policies, furthermore, provided a balance of appropriate teaching styles and learning experiences. I have aimed to make myself aware of external/internal assessment procedures and I have played a key and appropriate part in their implementation.
I have always evaluated and aimed to improve my own communication skills, looking to maximise effective communication, and overcome barriers with any member of the organisation I am in.
I have liaised with the Deputy Head of School in contributing to the design of programmes and teaching approaches for disengaged students achieving high standards and value added to the department. I am aiming to improve my knowledge with future experience to be able to better identify and address additional student English and Maths skills development in my subject area.
I have always evaluated my own professional development needs in and on action aiming to participate fully in current and future training and development opportunities. During my hours as a trainee and a main grade lecturer, have ensured that all students in the subject area and beyond have complied with policies and procedures, while providing enrichment opportunities that are exciting, motivating and enhance the student experience. I have engaged in outside activities with staff and had very positive results, contributing to the successful implementation of the mission and values statement of the organisation. Ensuring effective implementation in all aspects of college life for students and staff.
I have taken a proactive approach towards accountability and responsibility for personal professional development, Health & Safety, and meeting other regulatory compliances, enabling safe and professional working practices to be observed at all times, supporting curricular and extracurricular activities as required.
I am educated to bachelor (with honours) degree level in Business and Management, Leisure, and Tourism. I have passed my PGCE, alongside 170+ hours vocational experience and lecturing experience from October 2021 until the current day. I am also a member of the Chartered College of Teaching and can use the nominal letters MCCT. I believe my qualifications are relevant to the subject areas of the role. I have the ability to use the current IT programs of the College with efficacy, and proven relevant experience of curriculum planning, development & delivery in business, and professional healthcare practice at access level, and health and social care at pre-access level. With experience of assessing students’ needs and planning curriculum for their benefit during covid 19 and beyond.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Hello, and thank you for your interest in my profile.
I am an experienced Finance Director and Chartered Certified Accountant with an MBA from Durham University. Durham being ranked 3rd in the UK, 5th in Europe and 10th globally.
My strengths in addition to my extensive career experience and academic accreditations, is that I am skilled at explaining complex accounting, finance and economic concepts in an easy to understand, practical way to finance and non-finance people alike.
The first 1-hour session is free. We would use this session to get to know each other (both you and/or your child) and to understand specific areas where support is needed. I will draw up a study plan to lead up to revision, mocks and final exams, as required, to be shared and agreed with you before we start the fee-paying session. This will ensure maximum benefit from the lessons.
Additional one-off lessons are available on request, as are bespoke laminated memory flash cards and mind maps for that last minute or on the go revision refresher. Additional lessons may for example include revision support or elements of a subject that "you just can’t get". For an additional fee, I also offer an out of hours telephone support service, for the early morning, late night revision when you just need to pick up the phone and ask a question.
With my extensive practical experience in the field of accounting, finance and economics, I will get you or your child over the mental blockers and inspire confidence in exam success with the application real life examples to theory. My teaching technique will embed subject elements into memory for recollection in an exam setting and beyond. I have some excellent revision techniques, invaluable for the run up to the exams I would be delighted to share.
To me, every pupil is individual, and my approach is to take a bespoke approach to those individual needs.
Please do message if you have any questions or to just have a general discussion about the services I can offer.
Warm Regards, and good luck with your studies.
I am currently working at North West Training Council delivering BTEC level 3 and HNC Level 4 Business Subjects also functional skills at level 2 to students on various engineering and construction diplomas and apprenticeships. I am responsible for the delivery of functional skills to students within the College and it is my role to ensure that each student achieves their framework requirements in a timely manner. I carry out initial and diagnostic assessments on all students entering the college, to ascertain their current level of maths and English. This allows me to develop a plan for those who need more support or who need to achieve their required level. Many learners, have underachieved at school, or have low levels of confidence relating to learning and achievement. Through my approaches, I have been able to increase their motivation and confidence levels towards achieving their goals.
In May 2014 I was offered the role of Advance Skills Practitioner. I was very pleased to accept this role and used my experiences to advise other members of the teaching staff on how to improve their delivery and raise the learning experience for the students. During an OFSTED visit in April 2015, NWTC received a Grade 2 (Good) across all areas. This was up from a position in 2013 of Grade 4. The organisation went through another OFSTED visit in August 2018 and maintained its Grade 2 status. During this time, I have continued to mark A level and GCSE Business Studies exam papers for OCR, this has allowed me to keep up to date with developments in business related topics. 2020 was a difficult year for all but it allowed me the opportunity to develop my skills towards online delivery of learning. From September 2020 all lessons involved blended learning with some students in college and some working from home even within the same class. For my part this required me to development new skills to be able to deliver lessons efficiently and effectively. I continue to deliver remotely to one group from a major Food and Drink manufacturer whose students are unable to attend the College. Since 2020 I have been the IQA internal verifier for BTEC and HNC units and in 2021 I successfully presented evidence for three remote external verification IQA visits. I am currently teaching BTEC Level 3 Business Operations, Organisational Efficiency, Communications and Health and Safety. At HNC Level 4 I am teaching Professional Engineering Management and Organisational Efficiency. I am also delivering on the Fire Emergency and Security Systems qualification as well as workbooks (continuous improvement and quality assurance) for the Food and Drink qualifications.
I am an experienced teacher of both Economics and Business studies offering tutoring both in a face to face environment and online. My students consistently achieve A*, A and B grades each year, with many improving by 2 grades or more during the time I work with them. I am also an experienced examiner for a range of different specifications. I have experience of teaching and tutoring for all examination boards.
