What I'm looking for

I seek a role combining teaching and applied research in exercise physiology, with opportunities for academic growth, student impact, and collaborative research.

I am an exercise physiology educator and researcher with progressive teaching experience across secondary and primary schools and university-level training in human kinetics and physiology.

I hold an M.Ed in Exercise Physiology and am a Ph.D. candidate researching blood types, rhesus factors, and exercise performance among athletes in Lagos; I have authored and submitted manuscripts on aerobic, anaerobic, and resistance exercise effects.

My classroom roles have included Biology and Basic Science tutor, IGCSE Biology tutor, and Physical and Health Educator across multiple Lagos schools, complemented by NYSC service as a human biology tutor.

I bring strong research, academic writing, Microsoft Office and Google Suite skills, and a student-centered, target-oriented approach to teaching and applied exercise physiology.
