Angela Waterhouse

I am a kind and empathetic teacher with a 2.1. degree qualification in Creative Writing. My previous experience as a Teacher and Supply Teacher has enabled me to have the confidence to teach wide range of children from EYFS to Key Stage Two. I have confidence in both verbal and written communication skills, this enables me to explain new learning in a way that is both structured and inter-active.

I am hardworking and ensure that all tasks are completed to the highest standards and in a time-effective manner. My personal qualities of friendliness and positivity enable me to work independently as well as co-operatively with other team members. I show initiative when solving problems and resolve challenges by reflecting on my experiences and by focusing on a child-centred approach.
