4.1 Support student participation
Throughout my time as a pre-school sports coach at Ready Steady Go Kids (2016-2017) I have had the opportunity to create a positive and welcoming teaching environment. Many parents have commented on my ability to create a positive, safe and fun environment that children want to participate in. Some of these comments can be found below.
I would like to acknowledge and thank Tom for making the Ready Steady Go sessions such a fun and positive experience for my grandson, who has just turned 4 and has completed three terms with Tom. I have been so impressed that Tom has been able to keep a group of 3 to 4 year olds involved and engaged in the 45 minute session. He has a strong voice and a lovely sense of humour which the children respond to readily. The sessions blend a nice mix of regular routine fitness activities with new game skills and then some fun play time.

Tom is very energetic and inclusive of all children in my sons class. Children always seem drawn to him as he can make them laugh, feel included and engages with the children on their level. Tom is encouraging and has a manner about him, where he knows how to have fun with the children but he also has boundaries that he expects the children to follow. This is easy for them to understand as they have respect for Tom.
I would be very happy for my children to have a teacher such as Tom where I would see them grow and learn in the environment Tom sets. Gemma |
