I am a university student currently enrolled at the University of Toronto, completing an undergraduate degree in english and geography and will be applying to the Ontario college of Teachers in the fall. I have a passion for working with children, with experience in the field since the age of 16. Each summer I have dedicated my time as a camp counsellor to children at overnight camps, gaining experience in childcare from wake up until bedtime. I am currently employed by the Learning Disabilities Association of Peel Region as a day counsellor for children with learning disabilities, ADHD, and ASD. I have a goal to continue gaining experience in various childcare employment opportunities throughout the year before, and while I further my education to work with children as my future career.
