You encourage dialogue, participation, and engagement, and actively work with, among other things, formative assessment to provide each student with good conditions to achieve their goals. You can explain concepts to different audiences and from various perspectives. Experience working with students in need of special support and the use of compensatory tools in teaching is important. You have experience working with youth and are known for your ability to connect with students and create good relationships. You have experience working with students with various types of learning difficulties and neurodevelopmental disorders. You also have experience and knowledge of working with students with mental health issues, risky behaviors, and significant school absenteeism. You have a genuine interest in the situation of young people and are responsive to the needs of various students, demonstrating a supportive approach. You possess strong collaborative skills, as a significant part of the role involves close cooperation with colleagues and the student health team. Furthermore, you should be willing to engage with research on teaching development, youth psychology, and motivation strategies. The introductory program is an evolving environment, and as a teacher, you need to be confident and maintain structure and engagement, even when the conditions for the role change.
