Curriculum developer at Marshall Cavendish Education and creator of The Writing Mastery Series, a Grades 4–12 writing curriculum.
What I'm looking for
At Marshall Cavendish Education, I’m a co-author of the Writing Masterclass sections in the Cambridge IGCSE First Language English series. I develop student-book chapters, activity-book units and teacher-guide support for directed writing, argument and persuasion.
I created The Writing Mastery Series, a vertically aligned Grades 4–12 writing curriculum with student workbooks, teacher guides, assessments and rubrics. I also developed Grade 5 Grammar Mastery and Grade 5 Vocabulary Mastery, and published speaking workbooks for Arab learners through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.
At Al Kon International School, I teach English Language Arts to mixed-ability ESL learners and design lessons, assessments and differentiated tasks. My teaching has also included academic writing and English for Academic Purposes at Arab Open University and Al-Jouf University.
