What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my teaching skills and actuarial knowledge while contributing to student success and educational innovation.

I am a dedicated mathematics educator with a strong academic background, holding a Master of Science in Mathematics and a Bachelor of Science in Actuarial Mathematics. My teaching experience spans over two years, during which I have effectively taught various mathematics courses, including College Algebra, Linear Algebra, and Calculus, both in classroom and online settings.

As a sessional instructor at the College of New Caledonia, I have developed comprehensive lecture materials and utilized platforms like Moodle to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. My commitment to student success is evident in my proactive communication and feedback strategies, ensuring that students receive the support they need to excel in their studies.

In addition to my teaching roles, I have passed Society of Actuaries exams P and FM, showcasing my expertise in the actuarial field. I am passionate about fostering a positive learning environment and continuously seek to improve my teaching methodologies to better serve my students.
