1. To whom it may concern:
I, Jade Lewis, have my qualification in the Bachelor of Education
Degree. I have majored in Foundation Phase Education and Early
Childhood Development. I am currently completing my Honours
Degree through UNISA where I will specialize in Special Needs
Education.
I am a passionate, caring person and am emphatic about my
teaching career. I have come to learn about the schooling
environment that your institution provides and I am eager to join. I am
a flexible individual and will be able to move between grades and still
provide the learners with the best learning opportunity possible. This
flexibility stems from my International and Local teaching experience.
I am a patient, outgoing and hard working individual. I find the
experience I have gained through my various jobs of teaching,
tutoring and au pairing an element that has influenced me and thus
made me more determined to fulfill my career as a hands on,
prosperous teacher.
I am a sport orientated individual and really enjoy being involved in
sporting events. I am a qualified netball coach and graded umpire
and my sporting hobbies include indoor soccer, indoor netball, boxing
and volley ball.
The values I hold in life are of pure optimism. Love thy neighbour is a
motto I live by. I believe you only achieve what you set out to achieve.
I am a very driven and goal oriented person.
I look forward to hearing from you and will gladly present myself for
an interview at your convenience.
Thanking you,
Jade Lewis
