Educational Assistant – West Oak Public School
What do you love most about your job?
Seeing our students thrive and succeed while creating a positive and safe environment to do so.
What is a challenge you face?
A challenge that I face is being able to find the time to support all the students with needs. Too many student needs not enough time or staff.
What is a recent tiny victory or quick win you’d like to celebrate?
Supporting the students in achieving their goals, for example, providing strategies and tools to reduce disregulation. Being present and mindful of their needs during times of crisis.
What is your favourite quote?
“There is no greater disability in society, than the inability to see a person as more.”
What is something others may not know about you?
In my spare time, I love to travel and photograph, or draw, the scenery around me.
