Mujahida Mahomed

I am a qualified educator with my B.Ed degree in foundation phase. I am very excited at the prospect of having a long lasting impact on the lives of those I teach, and want to be a teacher who learners remember and cherish forever. My love of teaching can be seen in my actions and experience to date.

I am interested in applying for a teaching position, in the Foundation Phase, in your school district. I come to you as someone who has the ability to hold engaging lessons that capture the attention of the whole classroom. I am an expert at establishing clear objectives for each lesson and then working to meet those specific goals.

I have an effective classroom management style that enforces discipline whilst at the same time encourages creativity and discussion. I am self-reflective; possess a strong passion to enjoy every moment of educating young learners and I'm always looking at ways in which I can improve myself. I have high expectations of myself, and take my responsibility as a teacher very seriously.
