What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated academic with a PhD in Languages and Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Nairobi. My expertise spans the humanities, sciences, and education, allowing me to approach teaching and research with a multifaceted perspective. I have a strong interest in curriculum integration, multilingual education, and effective communication across various academic fields.
During my time as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, I delivered tutorials and lectures in English, Literature, and General Studies, while also supporting curriculum development with an interdisciplinary focus. My commitment to mentoring undergraduate students and contributing to faculty research has honed my skills in academic writing, qualitative research, and educational policy research.
With fluency in multiple languages, I am passionate about fostering multicultural and multilingual communication. I believe in the power of education to bridge gaps and promote understanding, and I am eager to continue my journey in academic development and research.
