In addition, I am hardworking, punctual and reliable. My motivation for teaching comes from personal experience of wanting to deliver my erudition of physical education. Becoming a secondary PE teacher will allow a platform to create habitual choices for children which will change their overall lifestyle choice. In teaching, I thrive for high standards, welcome new and developing challenges while learning new skills. I work well individually and within a department dynamic, being a course representative requires patience and resilience when there is pressure put upon me in a constantly changing environment. My other interests and hobbies: My two main sports are Netball and Football. I have played for the county and had regional trials in both. I played Netball at Leeds Beckett University and was elected as Club Captain in my final year. In 2012, I represented England with my football team at the Gothia Cup in Sweden; making it to the last 16 of the Cup. My other interests include gym and fitness, dance, water sports, fashion and most importantly, travelling. The aspiration of mine would be to visit every continent and gain knowledge surrounding various cultures and curriculums within PE. In the summer of 2017, I worked at Point O’ Pines Camp in New York as a Camp Counsellor and Fitness Instructor (2017). Preferred location: North East and Yorkshire.
