About me
I am a competent, committed, and passionate Educator with over 20 years of experience in the High School sector. My primary objective is to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment that encourages student growth and development. I aim to facilitate engaging and challenging instruction that fosters a love for learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. I have taught various National Curriculum subjects to students between the ages of 12 and 18, with a strong focus on Natural Sciences, Life Sciences, and Geography. I have the ability to establish dedicated and motivating classroom settings to encourage a learning culture amongst students. Throughout my career, I have been responsible for planning and delivering effective instruction across various subjects and grade levels, assessing and monitoring student progress, and providing individualized support and intervention as needed. I am also experienced in curriculum development, tutoring, and mentoring. Collaboration with colleagues, parents, and community members to support student learning and achievement is an essential part of my teaching philosophy. I maintain a positive classroom environment that promotes student engagement, behavior management, and social-emotional development. Above all, I bring personal integrity, honesty, and strong work ethics to my profession.
