I am a qualified and licensed teacher. I have taught basic subjects, such as mathematics, sciences, and the English language for more than ten years. I enjoy imparting knowledge to children and teenagers, as well as motivating my learners for a productive delivery.
I have a deep passion for education and work to foster a positive and inclusive learning culture. I like to involve my students in academic exercises that utilize creative and analytical skills.
I have expert experience in lesson plans, curriculum development, classroom management and analytical skills for problem solving.
I have learned the skill of empathy, which is engaging, to create a healthy environment in which every learner feels accepted or has a sense of belonging and, therefore, can strive to be the best of himself.
I believe that teaching is a dynamic process that therefore requires continuous compliance with new pedagogical discoveries or developments for an all-encompassing education.
I, through my teaching experience, have of necessity been involved in several trainings to improve my teaching skills: I keep up with discoveries in the science and art of imparting knowledge.
I passionately seek to discover the psychology of learning and ways to meet the needs of different learning intelligences and abilities.
My favourite hobby is writing: I have authored some published children's storybooks in the English language.
I eagerly look forward to working with you.
