What I'm looking for

I am looking to secure a position in the Public Service as a Computer Science Educator, where I can contribute to quality education, inspire learners, and promote excellence in digital skills development.

I am a Dedicated and enthusiastic Computer Science Educator with a Diploma in Education (Computer Science) and a National Certificate in Information Technology. I teach Ordinary Level Computer Science, delivering practical ICT lessons that strengthen programming and digital literacy.

In my roles as a Computer Science Holiday Instructor and Computer Science Teacher, I planned and delivered lessons, facilitated practical computer laboratory sessions, and supported learners with examination preparation and continuous assessments. I also focused on learner engagement and created an engaging and supportive learning environment.

Through my Home-Based Teaching Practice at Pumula High School, I developed lesson plans and teaching materials aligned with the syllabus and improved my classroom management and teaching methods through mentorship and feedback from supervising teachers.

Earlier, during my Industrial Attachment with the IT Department at National Railways of Zimbabwe, I troubleshot network connectivity issues, repaired computers and printers, provided telephonic IT support, and supported system maintenance with data capturing and records management.
