Teaching for the future
laying the foundation for growth
About me
As a teacher, I believe in continuous learning; nurturing curiosity is fundamental for my students throughout their academic and adult lives.
I strive to equip all learners with essential 21st-century skills through differentiated instruction, enabling them to discern between facts and opinions, empathetically absorb information, and critically analyze it. My goal is to encourage creative problem-solving, empowering students to surpass personal boundaries and develop into well-rounded global citizens with a conscientious worldview
