I am a seasoned professional Teacher. I possess a strong academic background in Mathematics, Science and ICT. I have a degree in Mathematics, Education certifications and ICT skills. With 8 years experience of teaching Mathematics, Science, Social science and ICT, I am confident in my teaching abilities. I make learning simplified, exciting and relatable to real life scenarios. I use student-centered, application-based teaching to connect abstract Mathematics topics like Calculus and matrices to real life problems and exam scenarios. I break complex concepts into step-by-step parts. I'm sure I'll be a great fit for you. Reach out.
