I worked for two years (2011 - 2013) in the United Kingdom as an elementary school teaching assistant and as a supply teacher (nursery to secondary school).

If you are willing to volunteer, in what area(s):

curriculum development, digital media, mentor teaching, researchers

How did you hear about us and a few words why you want to join EBB:

I first heard about EBB from the University of Toronto Ulife website when I looked up potential clubs, campus groups, and organizations to join. EBB caught my interest because I was a Bachelor of Education student at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto so I wanted to join a group that was related to education. Since then I am looking for ways to stay active as a volunteer in Education which is not easy due to my work schedule.

I consent to receiving important information including news, publications and invitations to programs and events.
