Description of tutoring experience

I am currently completing a Bachelor of Education degree and have gained four years of hands-on experience working with children through school-based practical teaching placements and tutoring. During my teaching practicums, I worked with learners in various grades, assisting with classroom management, lesson delivery, and individual learner support. I have experience in both English and Afrikaans medium schools, where I taught subjects such as Mathematics, English, and Life Skills. In addition to my teaching practice, I also offer tutoring services to learners from the schools where I have taught, helping them with reading, writing, and mathematics. These experiences have strengthened my ability to support children’s academic, emotional, and social development. I am passionate about creating a positive and nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and motivated to learn.

Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family, My name is Erin J, and I am currently studying towards a Bachelor of Education degree. Over the past four years, I have gained valuable experience working with children through my school-based teaching practicums and private tutoring. I have had the opportunity to teach and support learners in a variety of subjects, including English, Afrikaans, and Mathematics. These experiences have helped me develop patience, creativity, and a genuine passion for helping children learn and grow.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe I would be a great au pair because I have both the skills and heart needed to care for and guide children. My background in education has taught me how to create structured yet fun routines, encourage positive behaviour, and adapt to each child’s individual needs. I always strive to create a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and inspired. As someone who is reliable, organised, and compassionate, I take my responsibilities seriously while still bringing joy and energy into everyday activities. I am confident that I can offer your family both educational support and loving care.

Hobbies and other interests

In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors that involves anything from hiking to the beach. I love exploring new places, listening to music, and doing creative activities that allow children to express themselves. I’m also passionate about lifelong learning and enjoy finding fun, hands-on ways to teach and engage young minds.
