What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my teaching skills and optometry expertise while fostering student success and engagement.

I am a seasoned tutor with over two years of professional experience in academia and clinical practice, specializing in the TVET CDACC curriculum. My passion lies in creating detailed lesson plans that align with curriculum goals, ensuring that I deliver high-quality, tailored educational guidance to aspiring professionals. I hold qualified optometrist accreditations and am dedicated to achieving both personal and organizational goals.

My ability to convey information effectively ensures that students understand and engage in the learning process, whether in a classroom or virtual environment. I adapt my teaching strategies to meet diverse student needs, utilizing both hard copy and digital tools to facilitate seamless learning experiences. Notably, I facilitated a 15% improvement in exam pass rates through targeted practice sessions and anxiety-reduction techniques, which underscores my commitment to student success.

Renowned for my pioneering research in ocular diseases and vision improvement techniques, I have led practical workshops on clinical skills and patient management, earning the 'Excellence in Teaching Award' for my contributions to student learning. My collaboration with health organizations to draft guidelines has improved patient access to vision care, resulting in the early detection of ocular diseases in 30% of patients.
