@nicolettematanda
Dedicated educator with extensive experience in teaching and administration.
What I'm looking for
I am a self-motivated and reliable educator with a strong background in teaching English and Business Studies across various educational institutions. My experience spans from early childhood education to high school, where I have successfully implemented effective teaching strategies that foster independent learning and promote student engagement. Currently, I am teaching at the International School of Baghdad, where I continue to develop my skills and contribute to the academic success of my students.
Throughout my career, I have held various teaching positions, including roles at Sion Private Academy and Oosrand Secondary School, where I was responsible for planning lessons, managing classroom dynamics, and assessing student progress. My commitment to education is further demonstrated through my role as an E-Tutor at the University of South Africa, where I facilitated online learning for first-year Business Management students, enhancing their academic experience and providing essential support.
In addition to my teaching expertise, I have a solid foundation in administration and office management, having worked in roles that required strong organizational and communication skills. I am currently pursuing an MBA, which will further enhance my capabilities and prepare me for future leadership opportunities in the education sector.
