PROFILE & OBJECTIVE
I am currently working as childcare, educational assistant and substitute teacher specialist. My colleagues say that I have a good sense of humour, and I'm very professional in dealing with young children. I enjoy having a positive impact on their lives and their families. I developed my capacity to work with kids, and I learned a lot in terms of communication techniques in my internship and theoretical courses. I have enjoyed completing my studies in this field.
I'm resilient with adversity and patient with kids with a sense of leadership. My professional goal is to act as an educator. Right now, I would like to have a position that allows me to use my skills better and to join an organization with a good team spirit and where everyone pulls together to achieve common results.
