We will do lots of discussion about personal experience and real world examples which are beneficial to getting high marks in exams. As well as this we will look at relating theories in topics. My main focus will be doing constant practice exam questions on HOW to structure and answer questions accuratley.

Experience with children meaning I am friendly, good at interacting with a range of ages and from teaching in theatre and drama means I am creative with my approach in all subject. This includes-

HOUSE PARENT AND ACTIVITY COORDINATOR • BELL LANGUAGE SCHOOL • SPRING 2022

I lived and worked residentially as an activity leader and house parent for 4 weeks for Bell English language school easter camp. My role here was to create and lead activities to immerse international students aged 11-18 to help them learn English. I created, planned, and led activities such as netball sessions, dance workshops, badminton, and dragons’ den in the day. I then organized discos, pop idol, bin bag fashion show and quizzes in the evening. I also took a role in leading and coordinating excursions of up to 50 students which included trips to London. As a house parent for the children, I would have to be on call at night for any issues and help them maintain their welfare and good mental health. Finally, I helped with administration by assisting the manager in admin tasks.

MUSICAL THEATRE TEACHER • FOOTLIGHTS • SEPTEMBER 2021-DECEMBER 2021

I worked for the Christmas term here teaching musical theatre to children ages 4-6. I would plan lessons every week leading to the Christmas show in which I created the script and choreographed the dances for.

MUSICAL THEATRE TEACHER • LSC • SUMMER 2021

Through the summer of 2021 I taught children for 2 months drama and performing arts at LSC summer camps. Each week I had to create a performance for the parents to watch at the awards ceremony. My weekly themes for shows which I created included Matilda, School of Rock, Mamma Mia, Gymnastic and dance displays, and High School Musical! Some days I would have up to 30 Children. We would also have a weekly talent show in which I coordinated.

Volunteer dance teacher-

At the beginning of 2021 I volunteered at a High School in Manchester running a six-week musical theatre club where we worked towards a small showcase in the summer. Each week I led around ten children with a session that I had planned, which involved me choreographing a dance, and directing scenes from the musical “Everybody’s talking about Jamie.”

House drama director

Every year my high school held a house drama competition, and each house produced a play. I was the captain for my house and lead my team to victory. This has been one of my biggest achievements as in the space of 5 months I had to cast, stage, choreograph and organize the set and lights for a performance. This was one of my proudest moments because, through the process, I saw children gain confidence, try new skills, make new friends and be part of an experience they will never forget! As well as this, I also choreographed my annual school production. I held dance auditions and choreographed 4 dances independently. I chose to do this role as I felt it was a new, challenging task that would push me as a dancer to be creative as well as challenge myself as a director. During the process I showed resilience and dedication by stepping in at the last minute as director when there was a shortage in staff and support.
