About

Professional summary

I am a qualified early years educator with 13 years of classroom teaching experience across preschool, kindergarten, primary, and secondary education.

I have spent ten years teaching Mathematics, English Language Arts, Science, STEM, and Social Studies to KG1 through Grade 3 learners in a multicultural international school following American Core Standards.

I specialize in making early mathematics engaging and accessible through hands-on activities, visuals, songs, games, and age-appropriate interactive lessons. I support learners in developing counting, number sense, shapes, patterns, and early problem-solving skills.

I use formative and summative assessment to monitor progress, identify learning gaps, and adapt instruction for mixed abilities and learning styles. I create positive classroom routines that support academic, social, and emotional development.

I communicate regularly with parents, providing clear and constructive updates on learner progress and areas for improvement. I am experienced in teaching English-medium classes and working with diverse international learners.

I am available for full-time remote teaching and am focused on delivering live online mathematics classes for Preschool and Kindergarten learners during US afternoon and evening hours.
