What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to inspire students and foster a love for learning in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated teacher with a degree in Education, focusing on mathematics and sciences. My experience as a tutor has equipped me with a patient and supportive approach, committed to helping students thrive academically. I am passionate about fostering a positive learning environment and empowering students to reach their full potential.

Currently, I serve as a Math and Sciences Teacher for the Call and Learn Hotline Project in collaboration with UNICEF, where I provide academic support to students through phone-based tutoring. I design and implement enrichment plans for students needing additional learning strategies, and I have experience teaching students with special needs, helping them grasp the basics of numbers, letters, and counting.

In addition to my teaching role, I also work as a private tutor for grade 5 students, focusing on math and science. My background includes assisting teachers in lesson planning and supporting students in their learning and behavior, ensuring a comprehensive educational experience.
