Work & Experience
As a grade 4 teacher for 3 years, I was responsible for developing and implementing comprehensive lesson plans across subjects such as reading, Mathematics, Values Education and Language. I utilized variety of instructional materials and resources to facilitate active learning and accommodate diverse learning styles.
I have been a Grade 4 adviser in this school for 3 years teaching my learners all subjects. I established and enforced classroom rules to maintain a positive learning environment, observed and evaluated students' performance and development, and maintained regular communication wih parents, regarding their child's progress.
I have been a teacher-adviser for 3rd graders for 6 school years. In between these years, i experienced having one learner with autism mainstreamed in my regular class. I have developed and implemented inclusive lessons. I employed structured teaching strategies, including visual schedules and clear routines, to support the diverse learning needs of all students.
Teaching first graders presents a unique blend of challenges and rewards. On the challenging side, young learners often have limited attention spans, requiring lessons to be engaging and concise. additionally, managing classroom behavior can be demanding, as first graders are still developing self-regulation skills. On the rewarding side, this grade is pivotal for foundational learning. Witnessing my first graders grasp their basic reading and math concepts made me feel happy and fulfilled. I have also built a strong relationship with my students which I believed had fostered them a lifelong love of learning.
