I audited ATL coverage across 180 MYP units, identifying gaps in self-management, social, affective and transfer skills. I also teach MYP English Language and Literature and Individuals and Societies, designing concept-driven units and assessments aligned with MYP criteria. I use assessment evidence to adapt instruction and help students transfer skills across subjects. Earlier, I taught English in secondary schools in Tunisia and worked as a Special Needs Educator, designing adapted learning activities with families and multidisciplinary teams. I also founded the Tabarka Book Club and the English Corners Initiative to support literacy and English learning in the community. ``` ## Experience ### MYP ATL Coordinator (current) International School Saudi Arabia.
