My present role is as a facilitator/tutor delivering vocational skills/theory Diplomas; level one, through to level three. My teaching risk rating is Green. For me, the most important aspect of learner retention stems from being in relational context with the learner, seeing them as they are, gaining some understanding of their needs and struggles and supporting them to know that whatever the difficulty, I teach to pass not to fail. Around 25% of my learners aged 16-19 (or 21 dependant on when they were initially registered) are identified as having an ALN or ASN, with one of my learners on the Autism spectrum, I adapt how I communicate the sessions to accommodate the clarity he requires and to not assume that he can second guess what to do next. I have found that I am able to support a wide range of learners to achieve and have not lost one learner from an apprenticeship course that I have delivered. …show more content…
I began counselling and personal development training just over five years ago, stopping for one year when initially employed by Skills Group, as during this time I had been put onto the CTTLS training course and was getting to know the job and role. I then approached my line manager (Debra Rowan) and discussed my wish to take the level 4 diploma and that I did not view my post with Skills Group as a decorating tutor as being long term. This was two years ago. I am presently waiting for my exam results for the Level 4 Diploma in counselling and plan to progress onto level 5 in another year. Skills Group as a training provider of its staff has been generous in its provision of paid for qualifications, has high standards of expectations of its employees and supportive of my personal aims outside of the company’s
As a future educator, I will look at my class as a complete unit and not separate the children that have disabilities. I will concentrate on the needs of all my students and plan
I have personally struggled with a learning disability growing up and I rarely understood what was being taught because no one ever took the time to explain it to me in a way I could understand. Being a teacher I plan on teaching in multiple ways at a time so that my students can hopefully get a better understanding of the subject that is being taught. I plan on doing hands-on activities, using diagrams, word problems, and whatever is necessary for my students to have the best learning experience they possibly
(qtd in Long). Those going into teaching now go into this profession knowing they will most likely have to work multiple jobs if they do not have a partner that is able to support them. This is causing a lack of teachers which in turn is causing them to be spread too thin and way overworked which is horrible. This relates to my life as someone studying special education currently. Reading this text gave me more insight into what it is really like for
I have been working in the Accounts Receivable workflow of the Revenue Collections Division at the SP 05 level since January 2013 until present. During my time as a Collections Officer, I have been responsible for administering and enforcing the Income Tax Act, and Excise Tax Act, as well as following policies and procedures to resolve account balances for GST, paydac, corporate, and personal accounts. In order to effectively work the accounts assigned to me I conduct field calls to interview clients, their representative(s) and other third parties to establish intentions of resolving debt, assess lifestyle and/or address compliance issues. I also review, analyze, and examine financial information for businesses or individuals when requested
When I first joined the care home, on my first day at work, I was given my job description along with the induction book and folder to be completed within the 6 weeks before my first supervision with the line manager. In my job description, I have been explained what is expected by the company from me, and how to work alongside with the Care Quality Commission standards, and company policies and procedures. My responsibilities towards my job has been described and I had to shadow one of the staff on the floor to get more familiar with my work and to learn their ways and techniques of work and to adapt to their ways of working. During the induction period health and safety, food hygiene information, help and support, guidelines in regarding
As part of my developmental learning for final year of social work is my emerging practice framework. A practice framework is designed as a tool for practitioners (Connolly, 2006). It is a statement about how I will practice as an emerging social worker. This semester I will work on this document throughout my final placement.
Also, the instructor reiterated that the anxiety levels of the individuals taking part in the seminar were high. He informed the professionals that the tightness or tension they felt as a result of experiencing the questions he asked parallels that of a student with learning disabilities. Noting, this is how a student with a learning disability feels on a regular bases. Teachers should be mindful of the characteristics of children with learning disabilities; they need to take this into account when providing instruction and asking questions with regard to the lesson. Another great point that was addressed, is the idea that if a person is being yelled at to provide information repeatedly their first response is to look away.
I come to class with excited feeling and joy to learn and work with children and staff in this class. I dress appropriated clothes and comfort to work with children all day long. I avoid absences and spend as much as possible time in class to learn and be with children. I get used to the classroom routine schedule and ask with my colleague and teachers activities and events that occur between children that I don’t understand. I remain positive attitude in the classroom all the time.
Beside personal therapy, boundary setting is one of the essential elements to develop effective client-counsellor relationship. It provides a consistent framework in the counselling process which shapes the appropriate interaction and relationship structure. There are five basic principles outlined in the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) Interim Code of Ethics 2015 that guides the therapeutic boundaries. They include: beneficence (to promotes the best interest of the client), non-maleficence (“doing no harm”), autonomy (to encourage independent thinking and decision-making in the client), justice (to provide equal and fair service), and fidelity (to be honest and commit to client’s progress). However, the structure
As a teaching assistant you can give children and young people the tools to building relationships by modelling appropriate behaviour. To encourage trust and understanding, it is necessary to ensure that children understand instructions. Whether for an activity or a fire drill, any miscommunication of instructions can lead to misunderstanding and feelings of unease. When giving instructions it is important to make them simple and concise so that children can remember them.
My successful complex higher duties in different business lines demonstrate my ability to adapt quickly to new work environment even at short notice. My current higher duty role expands my perspectives concerning the timely and effective management of mailbox and filing in accordance with business requirements. Often, my responsibilities include other competing priorities such as: preparing, coordinating and compiling documents for our required periodic reports including Senate Estimates briefs coordinate responses to ministerial correspondence. The excellent feedback from managers proves my willingness to take on new tasks with diligence and an ability to work under pressure.

“The assistance frees up time for the lead teacher to focus on skills development and classroom management.” (McQuerrey:2013). Hancock et al (2013) provides insight on the positive impact of TAs, “the variation in learning support staff roles seems to be a desirable workforce development. It offers a localized, creative way of utilizing adult skills thus maximizing support for teachers and for children’s learning.” There are also negative impacts in the use of TAs in the classroom.
Part D: Development as a Psychologist This internal practical internship offered me an opportunity to focus on using the knowledge and skills acquired during the related courses on behavior training with children and cognitive behavior therapy with adolescents to practice my therapeutic work as a child and adolescent psychologist and a chance to see how psychological therapies (behavior training and cognitive behavior therapy) could be delivered in different settings. At first, I found it challenging to work independently and decide what to do and when to do it. More specifically, during CBT+ component I was challenged by working with a depressive adolescent and applying my skills and knowledge on the “spot”. On the other hand, my
Over the past one and half month, the class of PDE 502 (Counselling and Career Education) has taught me some major lessons for life in dealing with the clients in response to their emotional needs. The role of a counsellor is not unlike that of a friend where by it is nurtured by being in each other’s company, talking over everyday issues and sharing feelings. However, what sets a counsellor apart is their experience and the ability to apply counselling theories and techniques to assist people in gaining awareness, insight and explore ways of solving their own issues.
