Summary

Passionate secondary teacher with experience in both Science and Physical Education. I focus on creating inclusive, student-centered lessons that spark curiosity and build confidence, whether in the lab or on the field. I design learning experiences that connect theory to real life, encourage collaboration, and support students in building both academic and personal resilience. My teaching is shaped by ongoing reflection, feedback, and a commitment to aligning practice with curriculum and professional standards. I bring energy, structure, and a genuine care for student wellbeing into every classroom.
