With nearly 20 years of experience teaching English in diverse international settings, I believe my qualifications and background align perfectly with your requirements.
I am a certified English teacher with a master’s degree in applied linguistics. Currently, I am working on my thesis on leadership and education at Liverpool University. Over the years, I have had the privilege of teaching students from Grade 3 to Grade 12 in various educational frameworks, including American, British, and International Baccalaureate (IB) systems. My experience also encompasses diverse teaching and administrative positions, and I am currently the English Teacher and Senior Phase Head at a Cambridge-accredited school in Swaziland.
