What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my teaching expertise while fostering a collaborative and innovative educational environment.

I am an accomplished English language teacher with extensive experience in both corporate and educational settings. My journey began at the NATO Defense Language Institute, where I honed my skills in teaching English as a second language to the Afghan National Army and Air Force. Over the years, I have developed a passion for creating engaging lesson plans that cater to diverse learning styles, ensuring that each student achieves measurable academic success.

As the Director of Studies at English Time, I led a team of educators, implementing innovative teaching strategies and integrating technology into the classroom. My commitment to student-centered learning has resulted in significant improvements in student performance, with an average grade increase of 15%. I am dedicated to fostering a positive learning environment that encourages growth and development for both students and teachers.
