- An assistant teacher plays a vital role in supporting the classroom teacher and enhancing the learning environment. I take attendance and ensure that any notes or reports are updated, while the teacher starts the lesson.
- While the teacher is teaching, I move around the classroom to make sure that all learners are paying attention. If someone in the class appears confused or needs an explanation, I assist them without interfering with the lesson's progress. In some classes, there were learners with special needs. When those learners enter my class, I give them one-on-one attention and help them with reading and writing. I also keep an eye on learners and make sure they comprehend instructions to support during testing. Assist the teacher with photocopying, organizing learning assignments, or maintaining bulletin boards, so they may concentrate on teaching.
