What I'm looking for

I seek a role in a supportive environment that values creativity and innovation in teaching.

I am a passionate and energetic TEFL-certified educator with a diverse background in teaching and tutoring. My experience spans from working as a preschool teacher to providing academic support at the university level. I thrive in creating immersive and interactive learning environments, whether in-person or online, and I am dedicated to fostering a love for learning in my students.

Throughout my career, I have designed and implemented engaging lesson plans that cater to young learners, focusing on early literacy and social development through play-based learning. My ability to adapt lessons for hybrid or remote teaching has allowed me to maintain high levels of student engagement, even in challenging circumstances. I am excited to contribute my skills to a forward-thinking school or online teaching platform that values innovation in education.
