What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that values creativity and professional growth.

I am a passionate educator and writer with a Master of Letters degree from the University of St Andrews, where I graduated with merit. My dissertation, titled 'Trauma of the Oil Encounter: Environmental and Cultural Loss and the Trauma of Violence,' reflects my deep engagement with literature and its societal impacts. I have honed my communication skills through various roles, including my time as a copywriter at Architevo, where I managed social media content and customer relations.

Currently, I am an English Instructor at both AUCE and the University of Balamand, where I teach a range of language proficiency levels. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment, preparing students for their academic journeys. I am eager to bring my expertise and enthusiasm to a new opportunity, contributing positively to the educational landscape.
