Throughout my studies, I explored a range of genres and periods, from classical works to modern narratives. I also completed informal certifications in areas such as inclusive teaching and English as a Second Language (TESL), which enhanced my instructional approach.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Literature, which provided a solid foundation in literary analysis, critical thinking, and written communication. Throughout my studies, I explored a range of genres and periods, from classical works to modern narratives. I also completed informal certifications in areas such as inclusive teaching and English as a Second Language (TESL), which enhanced my instructional approach.

Over the past two years, I’ve worked as a tutor and teacher across various settings, helping students improve their language and literature skills. My experience includes one-on-one tutoring, classroom instruction, online teaching, and volunteer work.
In individual tutoring, I’ve worked with high school students (ages 14–18) on essay writing, literary comprehension, and exam preparation. My methods are student-centered and adaptive, incorporating creative writing, multimedia tools, and guided discussions to boost engagement and learning outcomes.

In a classroom setting, I volunteered at a community learning center, teaching middle school students (ages 11–13). I planned and led weekly lessons that emphasized reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and collaborative learning. I used differentiated instruction to meet diverse learning styles.

I also transitioned to remote teaching, working with students locally and internationally, including a student preparing for the IELTS exam. I utilized platforms like Zoom and Google Docs for interactive, real-time instruction.

Additionally, I participated in a literacy program for children (ages 8–10), using storytelling, games, and phonics-based activities to foster early reading skills in a fun, supportive environment.

My teaching philosophy focuses on empathy, creativity, and active learning. I aim to create inclusive spaces where students feel confident, curious, and motivated to grow as readers, writers, and thinkers.
