Online English and Literature teacher building language-data annotation skills through DataLens Africa training.
What I'm looking for
As a freelance Online Teacher of English and Literature, I deliver remote instruction across GCSE and CBC curricula. I evaluate learners’ written and spoken responses and provide specific feedback on grammar, communication, and comprehension.
Through structured lesson planning, progress tracking, and targeted revision, I improved student grades by an average of 17%. I also develop speaking and writing exercises to strengthen learners’ accuracy and clarity.
At Nyang’iela Secondary School, I taught English and Literature under the supervision of experienced teachers. I designed lessons and learning materials, assessed understanding, and adapted instruction to different learning needs.
Through ongoing Data Annotation Training with DataLens Africa, I’m developing practical skills in text and image annotation, including NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis and Named Entity Recognition. I’m particularly interested in language data, quality evaluation, and human-in-the-loop AI work.
