About Me
Hello! My name is Chun, and I’m currently working full-time as a Teaching Assistant in a secondary school setting. I completed my PGCE in Secondary Music Teaching last year, and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Music from Royal Holloway, University of London. I also have a background in hospitality and wine studies, having studied at the International Culinary Institute.
In addition to my classroom experience, I’ve worked as a private Maths tutor for pupils from independent schools. I bring a strong academic background, particularly in Music and Mathematics, and I hold a Grade 8 in Flute.
I’m passionate about education and child development. I have a warm, caring nature and love supporting children’s learning both academically and creatively. Outside of work, I enjoy riding my Brompton folding bike, camping, and exploring the outdoors.
If you’re looking for someone responsible, enthusiastic, and multi-skilled with both teaching and care experience, I’d love to hear from you.
