Firstly, I believe that the pursuit of knowledge and life-long learning is important to the individual.
I also believe that every student has the right to quality education- delivered to them in a manner that makes it simple to learn, unlearn and relearn.
I believe that I deliver such an education to my past, current and potential students- one that will enable them achieve their personal academic goals and ultimately improve their study process.
My model of teaching is mostly active recall- whereby I teach my student the basic content first then give relevant examples. Afterwards, at the end of class, I administer short quizzes to test their grasp of the subject matter.
I use past school papers and national finals papers to administer exams to my students. They are sat for in regulation time, after which I mark and release them back in good time to the students.
The revision process starts right after: it is done thoroughly and timely.
Lastly, I believe that a good teacher is truly a rare gem- especially in this modern world and in these modern times.
End.
