@derrickbiboagma
Research and teaching assistant focused on development data and community impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Ghanaian Teaching Assistant/Research Assistant who supports lecturers in teaching and research, while strengthening my skills through team work and professionalism. I’ve also worked on dry-spell relief data collection and training with AGRO-BROADSPECTRUM and the World Food Programme (WFP).
At SD Dombo University of Business and Integrated Development Studies (SDD-UBIDS), I assisted lecturers in teaching and research, organized tutorials, supported students on project work, and handled data entry and management. I also contributed to invigilation of examinations and general administrative duties, keeping learning and research processes running smoothly.
My academic and applied experience centers on environment and resource management and community development—through field practical work and study visits such as the Jambushi water treatment plant (Wa). I bring strong report writing, communication, and interpersonal relations, and I’m motivated to positively impact development “in Ghanaian society and beyond.”
