‘MAKING A DIFFERENCE’

I am a life-long learner and a strong believer in sustainable living. My life’s purpose of making a difference through education made me quit my corporate job and take up teaching. I am extremely passionate about building future skills – like critical thinking, communication, and collaboration in young students. I am happy that I got an opportunity to lead and mentor the MYP team through the MYP authorisation process. I would consider this as a significant achievement in my teaching career.
