I’m a passionate and experienced math teacher who loves to help students learn and grow. I have a strong background in pure mathematics, and I'm also certified to teach IGCSE, GSE, and IB math. I've been teaching for 29 years, and I've seen firsthand how math can change lives.
I believe all students can learn math, and am committed to helping them succeed. I use a variety of teaching methods to keep students engaged and motivated, including hands-on activities, group work, and problem-solving exercises. I also focus on providing clear and concise explanations of math concepts and using real-world examples to make math relevant to students' lives.
I’m committed to my field of study and always looking for new ways to engage students in learning. I’m confident that I can make a positive difference in the lives of children/students.
