Stoke-On-Trent, England, United Kingdom

Supporting students with special educational needs in classroom and 1:1 settings.Whilst I didn't get to spend much time at Stoke Sixth Form due to personal reasons and staffing changes, my time spent there was so valuable. The relationship I built with a couple of students made every day bright and cheery, and knowing that I helped them realise their true value before they went to the big world of university is a feeling I will never forget.

Rotherham, England, United Kingdom

Supporting students with special educational needs in classroom and 1:1 settings, and aiding with external and internal communications. Specialist subject knowledge in English, Maths, and Sport. In my wonderfully fulfilling time at Wingfield, I single-handedly created and helped to implement a new SOW for mathematics - 'Rainbow Revision' - which taught low attaining students complicated mathematical procedures step by step with questions of increasingly levels of difficulty and a reward system in place, as well as a retrieval function with students setting their own question to answer in the future at a difficulty with which they felt comfortable. Even over a year since leaving Wingfield, I am proud to be able to say that Rainbow Revision is still used and loved by teachers and students at the school.

York, England, United Kingdom

Alongside the final year of my degree, I undertook an amazing apprenticeship with then National League football club York City as Media Assistant to the Media Officer. Working two days a week plus match days on a voluntary basis while having to pay for my own travel helped me to achieve a further level of independence while working for a professional football club realised one of my lifelong dreams.Despite a tough season on the pitch for York, who suffered a second successive relegation, personally, it was a year of so many highs. Among these highs were:-- Covering the club at Wembley on the official website, social media channels, and post match interviews in the FA Trophy victory over Macclesfield Town- Regularly contributing 20+ pages to every match day programme across the season- Being part of just a two man media team while winning the National League award for best matchday programme- Helping the club to become the most followed non-league club on social media in England- Being able to look back and realise that I achieved my dream of working for a professional football club and knowing nothing and nobody can ever take that away from me.

During my time at Dewsbury, I:-- Revamped the club's programme and social media channels, rebranding the match day programme to 'RamPages'- Regularly produced content at last minute to make sure every program went to print on time- Managed a team of regular and rotating voluntary contributors to produce content on par or better than many Super League clubs- Formed lasting friendships at the club and a lifelong affiliation with one of the sport's truly great, historic, and authentic outfits.
