Teacher of Physical Education and Irish

Aug 2012 - May 2013
Co. Cork - Taught Physical Education and Irish to students in first, second and third year using a variety of teaching methodologies and resources. - St Patrick's College is part of the DEIS school network, and so working here has given me experience with young girls from a range of different backgrounds. - Limited physical education facilities on the school grounds has taught me to adapt my teaching to suit the facilities at the local sporting centre.
