• Teaching assistant in nursery. 

In the nursery I was assigned to my job was to be fully committed to the children and help keep them content in that environment. I was assigned a task to assist the children in order to learn how to learn to share. This allowed me to learn how to assure children how it’s important to share and how to calm disputes between then.

I often had to also log any injuries that the children may have had: bumping heads and grazed knee, etc.

In addition to that, I also was assigned to the reception children to help them with their reading books one-to-one; this allowed me to help them with words they may pronounce incorrectly or words they may never have even heard of.
