It is with great anticipation that I present my qualifications to you for a position as a care giver. As you will note, in addition to earning my Social Service Worker diploma and Montessori Teacher diploma I also have four years of hands on classroom experience as a head directress of a Kindergarten class within Innisfil Montessori Academy producing an emergent curriculum and working one on one with children. I currently work as an educational assistant with simcoe county district school board and as a personal support worker.

As a versatile educator and support worker I have had the opportunity to work with various students including those affiliated with ADD/ADHD, learning disabilities, and behavioural challenges. My personal experience enables me to be sensitive to students’ unique capabilities, provide individual support, and promote a supportive learning environment, where each student is provided an environment in which they are able to learn and succeed.

Providing assistance to students by exploiting effective listening techniques allows me to assess students’ needs, goals, and struggles. After assessing the child’s personal needs, I can adapt my methods to accommodate multiple learning styles, ensuring each student will comprehend and preserve the information in the approach that is most suitable for him/her.

As a highly compassionate and dedicated care giver, with a passion for learning, I welcome the opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my wide-ranging experience and skills would benefit your school. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Bratton
