Summary
Emerging Education Assistant with practical experience from a school-based practicum. I enjoy helping students with different learning needs and supporting them in their schoolwork, friendships, and confidence. I can work with students one-on-one or in small groups, assist teachers in managing the classroom, and encourage all students to be included. I am excited to keep learning and growing while being part of a supportive school team.
