What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can continue to support students with special needs and contribute to their educational journey in a collaborative and inclusive environment.

I am a dedicated special education needs teacher with over five years of experience in enhancing student engagement through innovative teaching methods. My approach includes multisensory learning, game-based learning, and individualized instruction strategies, all aimed at fostering an inclusive learning atmosphere. I believe that every child has the potential to succeed, and I strive to create an environment where they can thrive.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities and special needs. My experience spans various educational settings, from teaching basic subjects to implementing specialized teaching techniques at centers for children with special needs. I am committed to monitoring and reviewing each pupil's progress, ensuring that I adapt my teaching methods to meet their unique needs.

My educational background includes a Bachelor of Education in Special Education from the University of Ibadan, where I honed my skills and knowledge in this field. I am a licensed teacher in Nigeria, and I continuously seek opportunities to grow professionally and contribute positively to the educational landscape.
