My Story

Growing up, I faced academic challenges and lacked confidence, fearing ridicule if I asked questions. However, my Grade 9 maths teacher's empathy and support transformed my experience, becoming a turning point in my life. Witnessing students face similar struggles, I'm driven to help them overcome academic hurdles and build confidence, empowering them to succeed

Cognitive Diversity

How I adapt to students with diverse intellectual needs.
