No reviews yet

I am a highly accomplished teacher with a distinguished academic background, holding the highest university degree in geochemistry. With over eight years of dedicated teaching experience within the realm of international education, I have continually excelled in my profession. My journey in education has seen me ascend to the esteemed role of Head of Science, a testament to my expertise and leadership in the field.
In addition to my extensive teaching career, I have earned several coveted teaching certificates, specializing in delivering international chemistry curricula such as IGCSE, IB Diploma Programme, and A-Levels. My commitment to maintaining the highest standards of instruction is reflected in these certifications, ensuring that students receive the best possible education.

Working together, you will:
1. Acquire new knowledge, successful study methods and strategies that will guarantee a high grade in the final international exams
2. Study effectively without wasting time
3. Understand each syllabus concept quickly rather than trying to memorize it
4. Sit the official examination in an earlier session

I will work for you in order to build:
✔ Lessons planned based on your needs
✔ Original and effective teaching strategies based on your difficulties

Teaching and exam material provided:
✔ PowerPoint presentations explaining each point of your syllabus
✔ Past paper questions solved step-by-step
✔ 3D interactive animations
✔ Short videos introducing each topic
✔ Past paper questions by topic
✔ The most recent full past papers

To understand various complex theories in science and their application in real-life scenarios, I aim to encourage students to visualize, evaluate, and analyze a solution for a problem from all angles.
By using 3D interactive animations, you will start thinking out-of-the-box and embark on a journey of constantly discovering new knowledge and easily developing your skills.

Furthermore, I have guided and mentored numerous IB Diploma Programme students in their extended essay projects. This experience underscores my commitment to nurturing the intellectual growth and development of the next generation, instilling in them a love for learning and a passion for scientific exploration.

As an educator, researcher, and mentor, I am deeply committed to fostering academic excellence and inspiring young minds to explore the wonders of the scientific world. My extensive qualifications and experiences are a testament to my dedication to education and the pursuit of knowledge.

My passion for scientific inquiry extends beyond the classroom, as I have contributed to the global scientific community by publishing research papers in reputable international journals. These publications highlight my dedication to advancing the frontiers of knowledge in geochemistry and related fields.
