Ely And Various Locations In Cambridge

I worked for Studio from 2005 until autumn 2013 as an EFL Teacher at the Station Road main school in Cambridge. Over the years I progressed and managed the teaching staff at the Kings School, Ely campus during the summer months. My duties included planning lessons and presenting training seminars to teachers, assisting and mentoring new teachers ensuring that they followed the correct procedures in relation to the company's guidelines. The Ely campus provided young learners with fantastic open spaces and classroom facilities which came with additional responsibilities due to the age of the pupils. In addition to the teaching work I was also a regular activities organiser working at weekends and travelling with students to places of interest, the visits were both educational and enjoyable and gave the students a decent insight into British history and culture.
