As a modern polymath with a growth mindset, I'm dedicated to science, education equity, and empowering youth through dynamic learning experiences.
Possessing an unorthodox (creative) and flexible work approach, coupled with a versatile and resourceful nature; I can re-adapt and translate acquired knowledge to cater for different students' learning styles. Being patient and empathetic toward a child's learning journey allows them to see mistakes as learning opportunities, giving them confidence in their abilities.
