Education
1st Certificate In TeachingUniversity of Westminster
London, United Kingdom
I completed my first year Cert Ed in Teaching, where I gained valuable insights into lesson planning and creating comprehensive schemes of work. During this period, I had the opportunity to teach Fashion Styling to BTEC Level 3 students at the College of North West London. In this role, I took charge of developing the entire curriculum, including crafting detailed lesson plans, preparing handouts, and creating engaging presentations.
Throughout the course, I guided students in practical applications of their knowledge. They successfully created clothing and accessories, customised garments, and learned the art of casting and styling models. It was a rewarding experience witnessing the students apply their skills and creativity to produce tangible outcomes by the end of the program.
