Abraham

I am an experienced teacher with more than 5 years of experience in a secondary and further education school setting.
The nature of my work in education has prepared me for this position. My interest in education stimulated me to lead a project on creating my previous school curriculum in English and Maths. My role here was to act as exam officer apart from teaching different subjects such as English, Maths or Spanish. As part of this, I had to liaise with awarding bodies meaning that I have developed skills in curriculum advising. I also created and/or updated all the school policies exam series related, as well as risk assessment, in order for the school to pass the JCQ inspection.
During the last 5 years I have coordinated the academic department, being in charge of the following qualifications: IGCSE English, A Level and GCSE in Spanish, Functional Skills Maths and English and GCSE in Geography. I have also prepared and delivered exam invigilator trainings and I have mentored staff members who are working towards becoming teachers.
As shown by my experience in schools, I am enthusiastic about education and always strive to do the best for my students.
