Throughout her studies she gained extensive experience in a school environment; working with children of all ages.

Yvonne Bamford

Assistant Director - Bristol Cabot Circus


“I consider working with children to be a privilege as I am continually challenged and inspired by their creative ideas and their ability to adapt and to learn when encouraged and engaged.  I believe Explore Learning provides a learning environment which children both enjoy and excel in and I love being able to individualise learning programmes to a child’s needs in order to help them achieve their full potential.”
 
Yvonne Bamford graduated from the University of Strathclyde with a First class degree in Marketing, having also achieved a Pass degree in French language.  During secondary school she helped to tutor a French class for 12-13 year olds.  Then, for many summers, Yvonne was part of teams leading holiday clubs for children, at which she motivated the children, led lessons and encouraged group discussion about the lessons.  She has also been a member of a team leading a weekly church youth club and a weekly children’s bible study.  These all gave her a passion for bringing out the best in children by getting to know them, getting them enthusiastic about learning and helping them to grow in confidence as they progress in their learning.
