I am pursuing a primary teaching degree inspired by influential teachers and my passion for working with children. My father's dedication as a teacher and an exceptional secondary school physics teacher sparked my interest. This deepened with the birth of my son, Jayden, who has Down Syndrome, giving me insight into special needs education. Early volunteer experiences at my local church solidified my commitment to teaching. I am drawn to primary education for its transformative impact on children's development. I aim to create a supportive environment where children can thrive emotionally, mentally, physically, and academically. My teaching career has equipped me with skills in effective communication, adapting to diverse learning styles, and fostering inclusive classrooms. Running an ECE school in Nigeria and organizing creative activities have reinforced my belief in interactive learning. I believe in nurturing the whole child, addressing both academic and emotional needs. With a strong foundation in literacy, numeracy, and modern teaching methodologies, I plan to specialize in special needs education and become a Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO). I am eager to develop my skills further through a teacher training program in the UK and am confident in my ability to contribute positively to the teaching profession.
