Tia Powell

Since leaving school I have found myself to always want to help in any way I could with anything. I am a hardworking and enthusiastic individual with previous work experience with children with learning difficulties, I have a twin brother with severe autism. I find I can work well and be very understanding, patient with children with additional different needs.

I am looking for a career in to what I can see myself excelling and making a difference because I care and have seen how difficult it is to understand children with special needs. I can adapt and work well under pressure as I am experienced to impulsive and demanding behaviour. I also in my spare time see friends and family and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
