What I'm looking for
I am an experienced English teacher with a strong background in fostering critical thinking, research skills, and effective communication in diverse learning environments.

Throughout my career, I have taught English at various educational levels, from high school to primary school, and have developed and implemented lesson plans that cater to diverse learning needs.
