Christine Acosta-Villapando Inorganic Chemistry in Tertiary and Senior HS
No reviews yet

Kia Ora! I have recently migrated here in New Zealand but was born and raised in the Philippines. I have a degree in Pharmacy, but fate lead me to teaching - where I found my passion. I am a seasoned educator with 13 years of experience teaching in both secondary and tertiary education from one of the premiere institutions in the Philippines. With my years of experience, I can attest that I have consistently obtained high performance evaluation from all stakeholders - students, administrators, and colleagues. I encourage collaborative learning where I assess students based on their learning style and skills then design instructional material that may fit them.

I specialize in Inorganic Chemistry for Senior High School and Bachelor's degree programs. I am willing to accept learners in IB based HS curriculum. I am skilled to teach Pharmaceutical Calculations, Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry for those taking a degree in Pharmacy.

On a lighter note, I enjoy walking outside when the weather is fine, and cooking makes me happy. My husband converted me into a Formula 1 fan, we're rooting for McLaren F1 team.

I would be more than happy to have a free initial 15 minute consultation call with you to determine whether we would match in terms of your need and my skills. See you then! :)
