Summary
A self-motivated and competent educator in educational development, patient teaching personality. Dedicated to ensuring students reach their full potential, grow and succeed. My teaching degree and experience of using the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement have strengthened my organization to use a variety of teaching formats, incorporate different learning styles and make content relevant to the student's lives. I am always eager to do research to improve my contribution to learning and teaching. My compassion and authority strengthens my approach to problem-solving, prioritize engagement and collaboration to bring an open mind and high expectations each day.
My personal philosophy of using motivation as an anchor for building a lifelong love of learning helps articulate my approach to teaching in an active environment for exploration and discovery.
