About
I have worked with children over the years even before I signed on to the teaching profession, from taking care of siblings to taking care of relatives which probably prompted me towards the teaching profession.
I have been teaching for about 4 years now and over this period, I have learnt to be smarter, more dedicated and proactive.
I have also learnt to develop a flexible approach such that is adjustable to meet the individual needs of every child/student.
My tutoring approach works with assessing the students to determine their strengths and weaknesses. For the weak areas, we work together to create a progressive plan which would help to boost the student's confidence in the subject(s) being taught, For the areas where the student has strength, an effective study plan would be set up to ensure the strengths are maximized.
I have found success by using a variety of approaches which include role playing and brainstorming exercises that have worked well with different students.
I look forward to passing my enthusiasm to my students.

Tomobid School
As a teacher at Tomobid School, I was in charge of year two pupils. I always had to look out for the continuous growth of my pupils not only educationally but also emotionally, physically, and socially. I taught them numeracy, grammar, comprehension, spelling, science, creative writing, and cultural subject. Considering their age the lesson always had to be interactive, intriguing, and fun. Starting from the environment to the actual delivery of the lesson.
