About me
My own school experience showed me how tough it can be to learn when you are just listening to a teacher talk. I remember feeling lost in classes that did not connect with how I learned.
This is now exactly why I teach the way I do today. I believe learning should be clear, engaging, and even fun. That is why I use tools like mnemonics, mind maps, and short videos to help ideas stick. When a student can visualise a concept or remember it with a simple story or phrase, everything just clicks into place.
Strengths:
My classroom is a judgment-free space, no question is too small, and no struggle is too silly to talk about

I enjoy discussions with students regarding the different approaches one can do with any mathematics questions, and discussion on the various scientific theories with students as I believe there is more than one way to solve a (maths) problem and scientific concepts should always be debated (even when they have been proven extensively). Only with discussions will true understanding be achieved, allowing students to progress with the foundations they themselves have laid.
