Bernadette

Hello!

Hello everyone! My name is Bernadette. I am from the UK. I look forwards to becoming your teacher.

I would like to share a little about my journey into teaching and some hobbies. This way you can learn more about me. My path into teaching began in a day nursery in a Caribbean Centre. I read stories, sang songs, and helped the children practice the alphabet and counting in bite-size. I also assisted staff with forming displays when special festivals occurred on the calendar raising cultural awareness. I wanted to develop as a teacher more in primary education and applied to an agency. I got to support English Additional Language and Special Needs students in various grades. I had the chance to tutor these ages abroad in Southern Spain, South Korea and South America in person and online. I witnessed a great improvement in my students comprehension and participation. I am eager to continue virtual education to reach people globally. I have always enjoyed learning about different countries, cultures, cuisines, and history. While in retail and education l got to work with people from different backgrounds. I could relate to them better because I knew about their countries or neighbouring ones. As a result, we conversed well and learned something new. I like geography and exploring ways to form an eco-friendly lifestyle. I appreciate visiting museums and historical sites. I often take photos of beautiful landscapes that inspire me to create paintings. I also enjoy learning how to play traditional instructions such as the steelpan, kayagum (Korean zither), and ruan (Chinese lute). Like you, I am learning a language and continue developing previous ones I was exposed to. I am currently, practicing two native dialects: Navajo and Quechua. I am happy to share any tips and techniques I use with you.
