What I'm looking for

I'm looking to support diverse language learners through inclusive, practical English instruction while collaborating with colleagues, engaging families, and contributing to programs that advance community integration and learner success.

I've spent more than 13 years delivering differentiated English language instruction for culturally and linguistically diverse learners. At Montessori School of Regina, I support early English communication development, individualized learning, assessment documentation, and family engagement.

At Pathways School, I coordinated EAL strategies, individualized learning plans, formative assessment portfolios, teacher training, and parent workshops across an international school community. I also led accreditation documentation for IB, CIS, and NEASC and used digital platforms to support blended, multi-level instruction.

As a NEASC school visitor, I evaluate program quality and compliance across member schools. I bring fluent English and Hindi, conversational Punjabi, dual master's degrees in English Literature and Education, and a commitment to practical communication, social integration, and inclusive learning environments.
