I am truly passionate about both economics and education, and it's a privilege to be able to combine these interests in my role as a Business and Economics teacher at Dunraven School. My journey to this point has been both academically and professionally fulfilling.

First and foremost, my Bachelor of Economics degree has provided me with a solid foundation in economic theory, principles, and analytical skills. This knowledge has been invaluable in crafting my curriculum to ensure that it not only covers the essential concepts but also makes them applicable to the real world. Economics, after all, is not just a theoretical subject; it's a powerful tool for understanding the complex dynamics of the global economy and how individuals and businesses fit into this landscape.

However, a deep understanding of the subject matter alone is not enough to be an effective teacher. That's where the PGCE training program comes into play. It has equipped me with the pedagogical tools and strategies necessary to engage students effectively and foster their learning. It's about more than just transferring knowledge; it's about creating an environment where students are motivated to explore and question the subject matter, enabling them to become independent thinkers and lifelong learners.

Teaching at an Ofsted "Outstanding" school like Dunraven has been an incredible experience. It's a testament to the dedication of the school's staff and the support of the wider community. Being in such an environment has allowed me to continuously refine my teaching methods and stay up-to-date with the latest educational best practices.

In my classroom, I place a strong emphasis on student engagement. I firmly believe that when students are actively involved in the learning process, they are more likely to retain information and develop a deeper understanding of the material. To achieve this, I employ a range of teaching formats to cater to various learning styles. Some students thrive in a traditional lecture format, while others benefit from group activities or multimedia presentations. By diversifying my teaching methods, I aim to reach all my students and accommodate their individual needs.

Moreover, I am committed to making the subject matter relevant to the real world. Economics and business are not abstract concepts confined to textbooks; they are dynamic fields that impact our daily lives. I often incorporate current events, case studies, and practical examples into my lessons to show students how the theories they learn in class apply to real-world scenarios. This not only makes the material more engaging but also helps students see the practical utility of their studies.

Creating a positive and inclusive classroom atmosphere is of utmost importance to me. I believe that all students have the potential to excel, and it's my role to provide them with the support and encouragement they need to reach their full potential. I actively encourage participation and open discussion in my classroom, ensuring that every student's voice is heard and respected. This not only fosters a sense of belonging but also helps students develop essential communication and teamwork skills.

In conclusion, my journey from a Bachelor of Economics graduate to a Business and Economics teacher at Dunraven School has been incredibly rewarding. I am dedicated to empowering my students with a strong understanding of economics and business principles, critical thinking skills, and a passion for learning. As I continue to grow in my role, I look forward to inspiring and equipping the next generation with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate the complex world of economics and business.
