Why did you choose to become a teaching assistant?

Since I was a child, I enjoyed helping the Sunday school teachers and adults around me. In high school, I had the opportunity to experience what it’s like to work with children and learn together with them. That’s how I became interested in the teaching profession. As a teaching assistant, I can stay closely connected to education and to working with children throughout my studies.

Why did you choose the Brit-Magyar School?

A friend of mine encouraged me to apply to the Brit-Magyar School, but what truly convinced me was the positive experience I had during the application process and meeting the teachers. Their personality and attitude made the school a very appealing workplace for me.

 How do you support teachers and students in your everyday work?

In my daily work, I try to assist both teachers and children with care, kindness, and efficiency—whether during lessons, break times, or lunch periods, as well as during holiday programs.

What do you enjoy most about your role?

I am very happy that I can directly support both the teachers and the children in their work and development.

How do you feel about your workplace so far?

I have only just started this year, but it’s wonderful to see how good the atmosphere is among my colleagues.
