About My Teaching Experience
I have seven years of teaching experience across diverse educational contexts, including American and British curricula. My expertise spans multiple subjects, with a particular focus on English, Biology, and Environmental Studies. I also have extensive experience as an English tutor, working with students across various age groups to improve their language proficiency and academic skills.

Currently, I serve as a homeroom teacher and KS1 Lead at a British School, where I teach Year 1 and Year 2 students, guiding them in English and literacy development. My role has also included implementing structured handwriting and reading programs, such as RAZkids A-Z, to enhance student engagement and academic achievement.

Teaching Style
My teaching philosophy emphasizes creating a student-centered learning environment where each learner feels valued and empowered. I tailor my teaching strategies to accommodate diverse learning needs, using interactive, hands-on activities to make lessons engaging and relevant.

For English, I focus on building a strong foundation in reading, writing, and comprehension, incorporating leveled reading programs to support differentiated learning. For Biology and Environmental Studies, I emphasize inquiry-based learning, encouraging students to explore real-world applications of scientific concepts.

I believe in fostering a positive classroom atmosphere, integrating visual aids, technology, and storytelling to make complex topics accessible. My goal is not only to teach content but also to instill critical thinking, creativity, and a lifelong love for learning.

Strengths
Adaptability: Skilled at adjusting lesson plans to suit individual student needs, whether for younger learners or older students.
Communication: Strong ability to break down complex topics into manageable concepts, ensuring students of all abilities can engage meaningfully.
Passion for English: I am deeply committed to helping students develop their language skills and confidence, whether through grammar mastery, creative writing, or public speaking.

Qualifications
Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) in Intermediate and Senior Phase Education, specializing in English, Biology, and Environmental Studies.
Extensive experience with both American and British curricula, providing a global perspective on teaching practices.

Approach:

How I Plan My Lessons:

I tailor my lessons to meet the individual needs and learning styles of my students. I begin by assessing their current knowledge and skills, then design structured, goal-oriented sessions. I incorporate engaging resources, such as interactive activities, visuals, and real-world examples, to make learning meaningful and enjoyable.

Tutoring Techniques:

I focus on building a strong rapport with my students to create a supportive and motivating environment. I use scaffolded instruction, starting with guided practice and gradually encouraging independent problem-solving. I also emphasize active participation, critical thinking, and regular feedback to help students build confidence and deepen their understanding.

Tutoring Specialties:

My specialties include English literacy development, handwriting improvement, and supporting students in Key Stage 1 and lower Key Stage 2. I excel at teaching foundational reading, writing, and grammar skills, and I am skilled at nurturing young learners’ academic and personal growth.
