Aoife's biography

Aoife is a diligent and dedicated teacher who has gained comprehensive experience in teaching practice and methodologies. Having studied first in National University of Ireland in Galway, Ireland, she moved to London to study at St. Mary's University in Twickenham and completed her PGCE year, then went on to obtain her Qualified Teaching status. As a new teacher she wanted to get the most she could out of her first year of teaching so she chose a school in inner city London with a high percentage of E.A.L (English as an additional language) students. This has given her a strong grasp of teaching the basics of reading, writing and phonics in an early year and key stage one setting. Aoife displays a great empathy for the children in her care, adapting not only to a different educational system in England, but also to a post-lockdown teaching experience. She provided much-needed support to the children in her class academically, but also created an atmosphere of safety for her students.

From an overall perspective, Aoife has many talents including languages, music, performance. She incorporates her passion for creative and practical skills such as cooking, artistic design and craft, promoting fine motor skill development. This makes her an excellent candidate for those who wish their child to receive a perfect blend of traditional academic subjects, but also important life skills that are not taught at school.

Aoife has a great presence with children, something that in many ways cannot be taught. She displays a natural ability to understand intuitively what a child needs to best develop their own particular needs within academia, but also from a developmental perspective. Aoife feels very comfortable with and possesses a strong ability to make the most out of technological resources. She has a plethora of aids available to her to promote reading comprehension, phonological awareness building, mathematics, typing and computer skills, among many others.

Overall, it is clear that Aoife will provide a comprehensive and robust teaching package for any child that will also be creative and enjoyable for them.
