About Me

While at the University of the West of England, I worked in the UWE Outreach Center. From October 2008 until August 2012, I worked under the AimHigher and SchoolsLink programs mentoring and tutoring local elementary and high school pupils. I promoted and provided pupils with the resources to realize the goal of attaining higher education, desired exam results, and a better understanding of core subjects while sharing the opportunities that my university (UWE) had to offer on and beyond campus. This was done through in class teaching support/assistance mostly in Math classes; one-to-one or small group sessions in school libraries tutoring or mentoring students with specific needs; chaperoning and leading open day campus tours and university sponsored educational trips; and personally presenting motivational assembly speeches. A high level of communication, organization, and creativity was developed through the interactive sessions with pupils; many of the activities and lessons were planned, lead, and delivered independently and with input from school teachers. I found the impact I made in the positive and productive direction, decision, and achievement of the young pupils to be extremely rewarding. In June 2010, I was selected to be a part of the Student Associates Scheme. This was a three week UK Government sponsored teaching placement in City Academy Bristol high school supporting the Mathematics department and lessons as full time teaching assistant. In the university I also took my developed teaching style into sports. As the treasurer of the university Dance Squad and the Vice Captain of the Competitive Cheerleading Squad, I volunteered in local elementary schools by running afterschool clubs and programs for dance and cheerleading.
