I was inspired to become a teacher, to influence children in a positive way at such a crucial time in their life and help shape their future. "Good afternoon Skyla. Good afternoon Gabby".
There are many things that make this career rewarding. It's really nice to see that they are able to achieve and be the best at something.
It's rewarding when you see children developing and learning new things from my teaching. "He took the key from his pocket and unlocks the door and we go. We mustn't dawdle".
It's very, very different from day to day, sometimes minute by minute. Going in every morning with an action, you've got a thing that you want to do. And then something will happen that will change it.
Training to be a teacher has made me more organised, think ahead, become more self-assured and confident in my ability to teach and adapt when necessary.
BCU to me is a stepping stone to my future career. It was a gateway into where I am now and it really set me up to be a successful teacher.
The teachers are kind because whenever you need help, they always come and help you.
I adore wholeheartedly and could not sing the teachers I've worked with praise enough because what they do is incredible.
