When I first decided to pursue a career in teaching, my goal was to provide students with an education that would help them thrive in the modern world. However, I soon realized that it was equally important for me to develop as a 21st century educator. This realization has fuelled my desire to conduct ongoing research on student's needs and to equip myself with the knowledge necessary to create a comprehensive teaching and learning experience.

I was teaching abroad in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Grades taught were Grades 1, 2 and 3. Curriculums taught were the American Curriculum and Cambridge Curriculum. These subjects include English, Mathematics, Life Skills and Social Studies.

As a teacher, my most relevant education comes from being trained on various high-quality educational material: textbooks, academic papers, instructional guides, lesson plans. 

This training helps me explain concepts clearly, adapt to different learning styles, create lessons, quizzes, and exercises, and provide feedback
