Barbara Dutton
Teaching Assistant
About
I have worked in different roles and pride myself on being punctual, trustworthy and reliable. I work well within a team as well as using my own initiative, enjoy leading others. I have worked with children and adults since 2002-2014.
I've worked in Private Nursery and further education college nursery settings from ages 6 months to 4 years. I have also worked in further education from ages 16 years-upwards. I like to learn new Skills and feel that I learn them easily, as well as maintaining and expanding my current knowledge.
I'm use to working towards deadline. I am caring and understanding and a good listener.
