Help The Jumpstart Foundation Trust with 5 volunteers for young teachers
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
You're an experienced teacher, an old hand at managing difficult classroom situations. You're willing to share helpful strategies and insights with youngsters who are beginning their teaching careers. They're often overwhelmed at big classes as they learn how to instil discipline. Your compassionate, calming presence in an online webinar offers them some hope that they can pick up some tips and tricks on how to stay sane in the classroom.

Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
